New Delhi: Covid’s DeltaPlus variant continues to spread across the country, raising concerns about new variants. Experts also warn that extreme caution should be exercised in dealing with new variants. The new variants are B16173, B11318, Lambda, and Kappa. Of these, B11318 is thought to have up to 14 mutations.
Meanwhile, the World Health Organization (WHO) has issued a warning against the Delta Plus variant of the Covid virus, which is spreading rapidly across the world. “The main way to deal with this is to use masks and vaccinations,” said Melita Vaznovic, Russia’s spokeswoman for the WHO. The Delta Plus variant cannot be prevented by vaccination alone. Vaccination and mask are required. Other preventive measures should be strengthened in the short term. Otherwise, she said, he would have to go back to the lockdown.
Melita explained that getting the vaccine would reduce the risk of the virus spreading to some extent and help prevent the disease from getting worse. Delta is a variant of the Covid virus that caused the second wave of Covid to become more severe in India. Delta Plus, a variant of Delta, was also found in India. At the same time, the number of Covid victims in the world has crossed 18 crore and 15 lakhs. According to the World Meter, more than 3.5 million people have been diagnosed with the virus in the past 24 hours. The death toll has crossed 39.32 lakh. Sixteen crore and sixty lakh people have been cured.
On June 23, the global investigation into the variant Lambda began. Kappa is another variant of Delta. All of these are considered to be highly permeable. Therefore, experts warn that if there is a third wave in India, one of these variants may spread further.
