BF.7 Omicron sub-variant once again making headlines as it is currently on a rise in countries like China

As China stares at rising COVID-19 cases and forced lockdowns, India proacts and gears up to fight a potential resurgence of the Covid virus.

The BF.7 Omicron sub-variant once again hogged the headlines as it is currently on the move in countries like China. Also called the Omicron Spawn, the BF.7 sub-variant, first detected in India in October, is the newest form that has high transmissibility.

According to health experts, this is because the new variant quickly bypasses the immunity that a person has developed through a natural infection with an earlier variant or even if the complete course of the vaccines is taken. Due to this, there is an expectation that the world might see a fourth wave of the pandemic.

Initially in the pandemic, the virus mutated several times, and the WHO declared the Delta variant as the most severe one.

The symptoms of the new BF.7 sub-variant are similar to the common flu and include cold, cough, fever, body pain, etc. As it is highly transmittable, it spreads to a larger group of people within a short duration.

It is important to be careful in public places since we do see that people have become a little careless as many of the norms and the rules that are put forth during COVID-19 have been lifted, say experts.

So, it is now important that we at least follow the basic measures, they add.

This new Omicron variant was first detected in China and India has seen its first case of this variant in Gujarat.

  1. It is stupidness to assign everything to BF-7 or GF-7 (BF boy friend / GF Girl friend 7).

    It is the bad karma that haunts you wherever you are.

    Surprised Brahim born PGURUS is promoting this ignorance ?

    Communist countries do not have God. They even left enlightened Gautam Buddha. Indians have Gods & Goddesses & inspite of DMK like parties, vedic chants are still recited. That holy vibrations does have some power. Did you not read Japanse Physicist (Masaru Emoto) research books (7 related books) – The Miracle of Water ?

    Time for Indians to do its own research on its own religion & ideology & spread to work than saying BF or GT or TF (TF – trans friend)…………..West invented seedless fruits & enjoying seedless men / women
