Depending on the season where you leave, it can be any virus. However if it's summer where you live it is likely the new COVID variant as your symptoms are suggestive of it. Let your doc know, testing will help at this point if applicable.

Itchy scratchy throat is one of the symptoms of Omicron stain if Covid. It would be prudent to get tested. Wear a mask to prevent spread of infection to others.
