Seriously, WHO, could you people be any less helpful? We all agreed on Omicron and now we have to type Omicron all the time? Couldn’t even use Xi?
Replaced “Nu” one too many times?
I estimate a 900% chance that no variant will ever be named ‘Xi’ as it would link it to a certain head of state.
I dunno, it’s pronounced “Kai” (rhymes with “guy”) but you might be right
No, the letter between nu and omicron is pronounced something like ‘ksai’. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Xi_(letter)
The one you’re probably thinking of is later in the Greek alphabet. https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chi_(letter)
Yes. So close.
