Doctors named the symptoms of a new covid-19 nimbus strain: causes "pain like a razor blade"

The world closely monitors the new variant of coronavirus called Nimbus (Nb.1.8.1), which is rapidly spreading in different countries. According to the British edition of The Independent, the World Health Organization has taken this strain under close supervision due to increased number of cases and hospitalizations.

According to official data of the UK health agency, the number of patients from the Covid-19 in hospitals increased by almost 10% a week to May 31-947. At the same time, the number of new cases of infection also increased by 6.9%, up to 1211 registered patients as of June 4.

The peculiarity of the NIMBUS variant is an atypical and very painful symptom. The doctor of London Hospital Nayda Asif drew attention to the complaints of patients who describe the sore throat as a "razor blade." This discomfort occurs during swallowing, especially in the back of the throat. Doctors recommend in this case more rest, drink enough fluid and take painkillers.

Another doctor, Mohammed Imran Lakchi, in a comment to The Mirror reported that patients with Nimbus often have additional symptoms: exhaustion, mild cough, fever, muscle pain, runny nose, and in some cases - nausea or diarrhea, which was not quite typical for Covid.

Despite new manifestations, the current vaccines remain effective against Nimbus, WHO assures. However, physicians are urged to monitor the symptoms, especially the sore throat, and not delay in testing if there are signs of the disease.
