Corona Cases in America: Corona virus is once again causing concern in America. According to recent reports, the cases of Kovid-19 are increasing in about 25 states of America. This time this increase is being seen in summer, which experts are calling summer waves. According to health agencies, the number of cases, Westwater monitoring and recruitment of patients in hospitals are clearly indicating that the infection is catching up again. The reason behind this is a new variant, which is spreading faster than before. Lack of caution in people, negligence towards vaccination and habit of going to crowded places during the holidays are also increasing the cases.
At present, the variant in which the concern is increasing in America is NB.1.8.1, which is being called "Nimbus". Apart from this, some other sub-variants like LP.8.1 and XFG have also been revealed. All these are types of Omikron variants, but their transmission capacity is high, that is, they can spread rapidly. It is a matter of relief that so far most of the patients infected with these variants have not seen serious symptoms. However, this variant can be risky for the elderly, already sick individuals and weak immunity. In such a situation, it is very important to be vigilant and adopt methods of rescue.
NB.1.8.1 or 'Nimbus' variants are similar to the previous Kovid variants, but it has some new and different symptoms that make it a little unique. The most prominent symptom is a sharp irritation or prick in the throat, which people are saying "razor-blade throat", that is, it feels as if something is stinging in the throat or there is a sharp burning sensation. This problem is so much that there is difficulty in swallowing.
Apart from this, common symptoms like high fever, nose, sore throat, headache, body pain and fatigue are also being seen. Some people have also felt loss of appetite, sleepiness and mild depression. The special thing is that serious symptoms like cough and breathlessness have been seen less in this variant so far, but if someone is already suffering from any disease or has been suffering from Kovid before, then the symptoms of this variant can take more fast form in it.

Wear masks in crowded places, especially in airport, bus or train.
Maintain cleanliness of hands.
If you feel the symptoms, stay at home and keep distance from others.
Keep the immune system strong with healthy eating and adequate sleep.
