Nashik: Considering the potential threat of Omicron version, the mechanism has been activated in the district and this version will more carefully screen the passengers arriving at the airport from the affected countries. District Collector Suraj Mandhare said that the Municipal Administration has been informed about the mandatory inspection at Ozar Airport.
The ability to infect the first Delta Plus version was limited. But the recently discovered Omicron variant is many times more dangerous. Earlier editions took ten to fifteen minutes to propagate. But scientists believe that four to five minutes is enough for Omicron to spread. The new form of corona found in South Africa is more dangerous and is spreading more and more, so it has been decided to take precaution in Nashik district.
