6011 cases of the new coronavirus were detected in Slovakia on Wednesday, 19 January. 61 people died due to Covid. Based on the statistics of the Health Analysis Institute, 73 more cases of the omicron variant of novel coronavirus have been confirmed in Slovakia. The total number of omicron cases confirmed by sequencing has thus reached 127. Similarly as in neighbouring countries, the omicron variant is becoming more and more prevalent in Slovakia. According to the analysts, it is therefore very likely that in just a few days almost everyone infected with the new coronavirus will have this variant.
