Earlier in the day, the British Health Minister announced that the Omicron mutant accounted for about 40 percent of Corona's injuries in the capital city of London.

British Prime Minister Boris Johnson said health authorities had recorded the first death of a British person with the new mutant "Omicron."

Johnson added: Unfortunately, at least one patient has now been confirmed dead because of Omicron. We must note the enormous speed with which the mutant is accelerating among the population. "

All we know about Omicron is that it's spreading at a high rate, something we've never seen before, injuries double every two to three days," said Health Minister Sajid Jawed.

Yesterday, the Government announced an increase in preparedness for the Corona pandemic from "level 3" to "level 4," on the recommendation of senior medical officials, to limit the rapid spread of the Omicron mutant.
