By SudOuest.fr

Sharp ear pains have been reported in several people affected by the Omicron variant, but this new symptom is not yet officially listed

More contagious but less severe. The Omicron variant which is rife in France today and poses the threat of a lightning sixth wave causes a series of symptoms different from the other variants: in addition to muscle pain, night sweats or congestion of the nose and throat, the virus could also lead to sharp pain in the ears.

A condition identified in several patients, but for the moment not officially listed by the public health authorities. At the same time, researchers from Stanford University interviewed by American television reported having discovered a possible infection of the inner ear by Covid-19.
