Omicron variant symptoms appear to be different than the previous COVID-19 symptoms felt from earlier strains, according to experts. Cara Gluck, the chief of clinical services at the Oklahoma City-County Health Department, recently told KOCO News that the omicron variant symptoms are often less severe than the symptoms felt from the delta variant, which makes it hard for people to diagnosis. Omicron variant symptoms often include fever, tiredness, scratchy throat and general sickness, often seen in the common cold. It’s been hard for people nationwide to determine if they’re infected with COVID-19 — specifically the omicron variant — or the cold because the omicron variant actually has genetic code from the common cold.
