Sorry for another Covid thread, and also apologies if this is has already been asked (haven’t got time to read through all the threads)
Also, apologies if it’s a stupid question.
But how does one know if they have the Omicron variant?
My stepson, DD1 and DSIL have all had positive PCR’s this week but that’s all the information they have.
I guess it doesn’t really matter, and I guess those testing know so that they can collect the data.
Are those with the Omicron variant told?

Yes they have all had positive PCR’s and are isolating.
I just wondered if anyone gets told which variant it is, because there is obviously data collected relating to it.
I know it doesn’t really matter but was just interested to know if anyone got told which variant they have

A percentage of positive PCRs are sequenced to identify the strain/variant of Covid.
