A group of Russian scientists have arrived in South Africa to study the new coronavirus variant, Omicron.
Russia’s foreign ministry has tweeted a video of the team’s arrival, adding that the plane was also carrying a “mobile laboratory.
”
The arrival comes days after South Africa’s President Cyril Ramaphosa invited experts from different countries to join the country’s scientists to “study the new variant and its mutation.
”
South Africa has seen a rise in coronavirus infections which have been attributed to the Omricon variant, which was first detected in the country last month.
