What are the symptoms of omicron variant?

Omicron symptoms are similar to other Covid 19 viruses. A distinguishing feature is scratchy throat rather than sore throat. Visit this site for more info: https://www.cdc.gov/coronavirus/2019-ncov/variants/omicron-variant.html

This variant seems more of an upper airway infection with nasal symptoms, throat irritation, non-productive cough, and a few days of fatigue and malaise
