Omicron (B.1.1.529) is a variant of SARS-CoV-2 first reported to the World Health Organization (WHO) by the Network for Genomics Surveillance in South Africa on 24 November 2021. [10] [11] It was first detected in Botswana and has spread to become the predominant variant in circulation around the world. [12] .
This timeline of the SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variant (November 2021 – February 2022) is a dynamic list, and as such may never satisfy criteria of completeness. Some events may only be fully understood and/or discovered in retrospect. The extensive mutations of its spike proteins make for the Omicron variant.

In addition to its use as an alphabetic letter, omicron is occasionally used in technical notation,[citation needed] but its use is limited since both upper case and lower case (Ο ο) are indistinguishable from the Latin letter "o" (O o) and difficult to distinguish from the Arabic numeral"zero" (0).

Omicron Islands is a group of small islands and rocks which lie close southeast of Omega Island in the Melchior Islands, Palmer Archipelago. The name, derived from the 15th letter of the Greek alphabet, appears to have been first used on a 1946 Argentine government chart following surveys of these islands by Argentine expeditions in 1942 and 1943.
Omicron Cygni. The Bayer designation Omicron Cygni (ο Cyg / ο Cygni) is shared by two or three star systems in the constellation Cygnus. Application of the superscripts to the three stars varies in different publications; the Flamsteed designations are unambiguous: ο 1 Cygni: 31 Cygni, sometimes 30 Cygni. ο 2 Cygni: 32 Cygni, sometimes 31 ...
