South Africa's daily infections have since risen to more than 20,000, with 35% of tests coming back positive in figures reported on Tuesday, and a further 600 hospital admissions and 24 deaths.\nThe South African study was based on more than 211,000 COVID-19 test results of which 78,000 were attributed to Omicron, the variant labelled \"of concern\" by the World Health Organization and reported in more than 60 countries.\nThe 78,000 cases were attributed to Omicron based on the relative prevalence of the variant within the country over the study period, but because they have not been confirmed as being the new variant the study cannot offer conclusive findings.\nSouth African scientists sent 630 positive COVID-19 tests for genome sequencing in November to see if they were Omicron and another 61 so far in December.
