The fifth wave of the pandemic in France is still triggered by the Delta variant, but the government has said it will pay close attention to the evolution of the Omicron strain.

“It appears that this variant (Omicron) is much more contagious than the Delta variant, which itself is more contagious than the previous ones,” explained Veran.

However, he added that there is no clinical evidence that the Omicron variant is more dangerous than the Delta variant.
