    Omicron survives longer on plastic, skin than prior variants; nose swabbing found best for rapid tests --studies

    Tue, 2022-01-25 11:24 — mike kraft
    Omicron survives longer on plastic, skin than prior variants; nose swabbing found best for rapid tests The Omicron variant can survive longer than earlier versions of the coronavirus on plastic surfaces and human skin, Japanese researchers found in laboratory tests. Its high "environmental stability" - its ability to remain infectious - might have helped Omicron replace Delta as the dominant variant and spread rapidly, they said.
