Saudi launches probe after recording first omicron variant case
Saudi Arabia has launched a health probe after reporting the country’s first positive case of the omicron COVID-19 variant.
The Kingdom joined more than 21 other nations in recording an omicron infection after a Saudi national who flew in on a passenger plane from a north African country tested positive.
The individual was placed in isolation, along with a number of other people they had been in contact with, according to the Saudi Press Agency.
