MANILA, Philippines — Except for one “unclassified” variant, the Philippine Genome Center (PGC) found only Delta variant cases from the samples collected among travelers from Omicron-affected countries.

 

“Last week, we sequenced about 574 and all those sequenced were Delta,” PGC Executive Director Cynthia Saloma said partly in Filipino during a radio interview yesterday.

 

The PGC also ran “emergency” tests on samples from the airport and all of these turned out to be Delta cases, except for one which was a B.1.1.203 and not a COVID-19 variant of concern, added Saloma.
