Bruselas. El riesgo de que la nueva variante de la covid-19, llamada ómicron y detectada en un principio en Sudáfrica, se expanda por Europa es “de alto a muy alto”, advirtió este viernes la agencia de salud de la Unión Europea (UE).

En un informe de evaluación de riesgos, el Centro Europeo de Prevención y Control de Enfermedades (ECDC) señala que sigue habiendo una “incertidumbre considerable respecto a la transmisibilidad, la eficacia de las vacunas, el riesgo de reinfección y otras características de la variante ómicron”.
