South Africa, which was the first to discover Omicron last year and gave an early warning, issued a new warning that if the new coronavirus continues to evolve, new strains that are more pathogenic than Omicron may appear.
The study, released on the 24th, was conducted by the African Institute for Health (AHRI), a laboratory that first tested the effectiveness of vaccines against the Omicron strain last year, using samples from an AIDS patient.
Here's the point – the virus initially catalyzed cell fusion and death at the same level as the Omicron variant BA.1, but after 6 months of evolution in individuals, the aforementioned indicators rose to levels similar to those of the original strain in 2019.
I understand the meaning, first show weakness and then show power, the new crown virus seems to have learned to play pigs and eat tigers.
Studies also suggest that the virus may continue to mutate, and that the new variant may cause more severe illness and death than the relatively mild Omicron.
Why do these findings always appear in Africa? Scientists have speculated that this could be a variant such as Omicron originally discovered in southern Africa, or evolved from immunosuppressed people, such as AIDS patients.
Understood, if you still dare to lie flat, I will respect you as a man!
