Scientists argue that BA.2 has genetic variations that make it more difficult to classify as an omikron strain. It has some characteristics that are not like the original Omikron. That is, there are no genetic changes that the Spike Gene, known as S-Gene Drop Out, makes it more difficult to identify the strain.
