    New COVID Variant: KP.3

    What is KP.3?

    KP.3 is a new subvariant of the Omicron variant of COVID-1 9. It was first identified in Cyprus in January 2023, and has since been detected in a number of other countries. It is not yet clear how widespread KP. 3 is, or how severe it is compared to other Omicron subvariants.

    What are the symptoms of KP.3?

    The symptoms of KP. 3 are similar to those of other Omicron subvariants and may include:

    • Fever
    • Cough
    • Fatigue
    • Muscle aches
    • Sore throat
    • Runny nose
    • Headache
    • Loss of taste or smell

    How is KP.3 transmitted?

    KP. 3 is transmitted in the same way as other Omicron subvariants, through respiratory droplets and aerosols. These are released when an infected person coughs, sneezes, talks, or sings.

    How can I protect myself from KP.3?

    The best way to protect yourself from KP. 3 is to get vaccinated and boosted against COVID-19. Vaccination significantly reduces the risk of serious illness, hospitalization, and death from COVID-19. Other ways to protect yourself include:

    • Wearing a mask in indoor public settings
    • Practicing good hand hygiene
    • Maintaining physical distance from others
    • Getting tested for COVID-19 if you have symptoms

    What is the latest information about KP.3?

    The World Health Organization (WHO) is currently monitoring KP. 3 and gathering more information about it. The WHO will provide updates as more information becomes available.
