COVID-19 Cases Rising in India LIVE: Symptoms of JN.1 Variant
According to health officials and recent cases, symptoms of the JN.1 variant are generally similar to other Omicron subvariants but can vary from person to person.
Common JN.1 Symptoms:
1. Fever: Mild and short-lived
2. Dry or wet cough
3. Sore throat
4. Runny or congested nose
5. Headache
6. Fatigue
7. Muscle or body aches
8. Diarrhoea and nausea (reported in some cases)
Expert Insight:
Dr Diksha Goyal, Senior Consultant at Marengo Asia Hospitals, Gurugram, notes: “Though the new COVID-19 variants like JN.1 are infectious, symptoms remain mild for most. The elderly or immunocompromised are at higher risk. Vaccination, masking, and early detection remain key.”
COVID-19 Cases Rising in India LIVE: What Are Symptoms Of The New COVID Variant?
The two distinct symptoms of this variant as compared to previous variants are:
A. Gastrointestinal Issues
A distinguishing symptom of JN.1 is the heightened occurrence of digestive problems, including nausea, decreased appetite, abdominal discomfort, and diarrhea. Although gastrointestinal symptoms were observed in previous COVID-19 variants, they were generally less frequent and often mild. In the case of JN.1, these symptoms appear to be more pronounced and impact a greater number of patients. Medical professionals suggest that this shift may be attributed to the virus's modified behavior within the body or its interaction with the immune system of the gut.
B. Persistent Low-Grade Fever
In contrast to previous variants where high fever accompanied by sweating and chills was prevalent, JN.1 infections frequently result in a persistent low-grade fever, generally. Individuals may feel slightly warm for several days without experiencing the severe fever spikes that were characteristic of earlier COVID waves. This symptom can easily be overlooked or confused with mild fatigue or other minor ailments.

COVID-19 Cases Rising in India LIVE: How To Reduce Your Chances Of Infection?
Here are comprehensive and expert-recommended preventive strategies to reduce your chances of infection and help curb community transmission:
Wear a Mask in Crowded or Enclosed Spaces:
- Dr Diksha says masks act as a barrier against airborne particles, especially in public places with limited ventilation.
- Prefer N95 or KN95 masks for better filtration, especially if you're in high-risk zones or traveling.
- Continue wearing masks in hospitals, airports, public transport, shopping malls, or indoor gatherings.
Tip: Always cover your nose and mouth properly. Avoid touching the front of your mask and wash reusable masks daily.
Coronavirus In India LIVE: How COVID-19 virus Makes Immune System Attack Healthy Cells?
Researchers from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem found that the virus's nucleocapsid protein (NP), which normally helps package the virus's genetic material inside infected cells, can spread to nearby uninfected epithelial cells.
Once on the surface of these healthy cells, NP would be mistakenly identified by the immune system as a threat. The immune system then deploys anti-NP antibodies, which mark these uninfected cells for destruction.
The process triggers the classical complement pathway, a part of the immune response that leads to inflammation and tissue damage, contributing to severe Covid symptoms and possibly long Covid.
Using lab-grown cells, advanced imaging, and samples from Covid-19 patients, the researchers found that NP binds to a type of molecule on cell surfaces. The binding causes the protein to cluster on healthy cells, further confusing the immune system.

COVID-19 in India LIVE: Study Finds Covid-19 Virus Can Cause Immune System To Attack Healthy Cells
Amid a fresh wave of Covid-19, Israeli researchers have discovered that a protein from the SARS-CoV-2 virus can cause the immune system to attack healthy cells mistakenly.
The study, published in the journal Cell Reports, sheds light on how severe Covid complications may occur and suggests new ways to prevent immune-driven damage from the virus, Xinhua news agency reported.
Researchers from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem found that the virus's nucleocapsid protein (NP), which normally helps package the virus's genetic material inside infected cells, can spread to nearby uninfected epithelial cells.

COVID-19 in India LIVE: How Can Office Goers Protect Themselves From COVID-19?
People who go to work daily, especially via public transport and in crowded office spaces, are more vulnerable to these emerging variants. So, what can you do to stay safe if you're an office goer? Here's everything you need to keep in mind.
While most people received their primary COVID-19 vaccinations during the pandemic, it’s important not to become complacent. If you haven't taken the vaccine for any reason, consult your doctor and get vaccinated. For those in high-risk groups—like the elderly, people with low immunity, or chronic illnesses—booster doses may be necessary. With new variants like COVID NB.1.8.1 and LF.7 in circulation, staying updated with your vaccines provides crucial protection.
Social Distancing Still Works
The virus spreads more easily in close-contact environments. Maintain at least one metre of distance from others whenever possible. Avoid crowded areas, especially during peak hours in public transport or crowded office cafeterias. Social distancing remains one of the most effective tools in preventing virus transmission, even in this post-pandemic phase.
COVID-19 in India LIVE: Study Finds Covid-19 Virus Can Cause Immune System To Attack Healthy Cells
Amid a fresh wave of Covid-19, Israeli researchers have discovered that a protein from the SARS-CoV-2 virus can cause the immune system to attack healthy cells mistakenly.
The study, published in the journal Cell Reports, sheds light on how severe Covid complications may occur and suggests new ways to prevent immune-driven damage from the virus, Xinhua news agency reported.
Researchers from the Hebrew University of Jerusalem found that the virus's nucleocapsid protein (NP), which normally helps package the virus's genetic material inside infected cells, can spread to nearby uninfected epithelial cells.
Once on the surface of these healthy cells, NP would be mistakenly identified by the immune system as a threat. The immune system then deploys anti-NP antibodies, which mark these uninfected cells for destruction.
The process triggers the classical complement pathway, a part of the immune response that leads to inflammation and tissue damage, contributing to severe Covid symptoms and possibly long Covid.
COVID-19 Cases Rising in India LIVE: What Are Symptoms Of The New COVID Variant?
The two distinct symptoms of this variant as compared to previous variants are:
A. Gastrointestinal Issues
A distinguishing symptom of JN.1 is the heightened occurrence of digestive problems, including nausea, decreased appetite, abdominal discomfort, and diarrhea. Although gastrointestinal symptoms were observed in previous COVID-19 variants, they were generally less frequent and often mild. In the case of JN.1, these symptoms appear to be more pronounced and impact a greater number of patients. Medical professionals suggest that this shift may be attributed to the virus's modified behavior within the body or its interaction with the immune system of the gut.
B. Persistent Low-Grade Fever
In contrast to previous variants where high fever accompanied by sweating and chills was prevalent, JN.1 infections frequently result in a persistent low-grade fever, generally. Individuals may feel slightly warm for several days without experiencing the severe fever spikes that were characteristic of earlier COVID waves. This symptom can easily be overlooked or confused with mild fatigue or other minor ailments.
COVID-19 in India LIVE: What Should You Do If You Experience COVID Symptoms?
If you feel unwell, even mildly, experts urge you to act quickly and responsibly.
1. Experiencing ongoing fatigue, stomach issues, or mild fever? It’s best not to brush it off. Instead:
2. Get tested for COVID-19, especially if you've had recent travel or social exposure.
3. Isolate yourself immediately to protect those around you.
4. Stay hydrated and get plenty of rest to support your immune system.
Dr Vishal says, "Monitor your symptoms closely—seek medical attention if you develop breathlessness, chest pain, or worsening gastrointestinal issues."
