The world has been suffering for the past two and half years since the emergence of the plague Covid-19, which has caused more than 5.57 million deaths globally. The new coronavirus Omicron variants following alpha, beta, gamma, and delta continue to spread. The virus, which was first detected in Botswana and South Africa in November, has since surged globally in the past few weeks, faster than any previously known variant of the coronavirus. Omicron has proven to be highly contagious and less receptive to vaccines compared with other variants. The aim of this study was to provide a brief outline of what we already know about the Omicron virus and what needs to be learned about the different variants of this kind.
