The Omicron variant is starting to cause concern in Europe. Jean-Stephane Dhersin, scientific assistant director at CNRS, professor at the university Paris-North and specialist in epidemic modeling, is invited to the 11 p.m..
Invited on the 11pm set, ten days ago, Jean-Stéphane Dhersin recalled that the Delta variant remained in the majority and that it should not be forgotten. However, he admits today that Omicron is growing very quickly. Indeed, the Omicron variant seems to be establishing itself very quickly in Europe. For Jean-Stephane Dhersin, optimism is not really there.
If the UK announces that 40% of his case of VSovid-19 are Omicron cases, France is struggling to find its place. For Jean-Stephane Dhersin, this is a lack of data. Indeed, some countries sequence viruses much more and therefore have more data. Jean-Stephane Dhersin explains that France practices sequencing, but with much less substantial means than the United Kingdom or Denmark. He specifies that France launched late into sequencing, while the United KingdomIsle practice for many years.
