Las personas que contraen infecciones por COVID-19 causadas por la variante Omicron tienen menos probabilidades de necesitar atención hospitalaria, en comparación con las infectadas por la variante Delta, según dos nuevos estudios de gran tamaño realizados en el Reino Unido y Sudáfrica.
En medio del aumento de los casos de la variante contagiosa Omicron, los miembros de la familia deben hacerse la prueba de COVID-19 antes de reunirse para las fiestas, incluso si todos los que asisten están vacunados y reforzados, dice la directora de los CDC, Rochelle Walensky, MD.
La autorización añade otra píldora antiviral para tratar a las personas con COVID-19, y llega la misma semana en que la FDA autorizó un medicamento similar de Pfizer.
El estudio determinó que el riesgo de hospitalización o muerte fue un 87% menor en los participantes del estudio que recibieron remdesivir que los que recibieron un placebo.
