A new variant of the coronavirus strain Omicron is rapidly spreading, and with it has come some new symptoms. It has been reported that a new symptom to watch out for with this strain is night sweats.
Scientists are concerned that vaccines may not completely protect us from BA.5, a sub-variant of the Omicron strain. While vaccines are still working in protecting us from suffering severe symptoms, they cannot guarantee full protection from milder symptoms at all times.
The news of this sweaty symptom comes as the UK battles a staggering heatwave. BA.5 also has the ability to reinfect people within only weeks of contracting the virus previously.
