The world under the alarm of the new option: What is known so far for the Botswana beat.

The new coronary variation, called “The Botswana”, has put the world on alert.

Greek Professor Elias Mosialos has answered 10 key questions about what we know up to, which has caused concern in the scientific community. Mossialos lists the data so far, stressing that “continued epidemiological monitoring” should be avoided until we have more information.

As the professor says:

“There is international concern about the new version of the coronary, called Botswana variant, until it is renamed. Of course, it is wrong to call it Botswana's version, for although his existence was identified in Botswana, variation may have begun in another African country.

I had noted from the beginning of the pandemic that if we don't have mass inoculation of the world's vast majority population, the possibility of new variants, especially in low-scale vaccine zones, will be high. Unfortunately, in Africa only 6.5% of the population is fully vaccinated” he said.

What do we know so far about this option?
First we had four cases in Botswana with vaccinated people. This does not mean that there are no more cases of both vaccinated and unexplored. There are also several cases in South Africa and one in Hong Kong that includes a traveler from South Africa.

Why are health authorities in Africa and other countries concerned?
In the new version, 32 mutations cohabit in the virus protein. Because of the discovery of vaccinated individuals, there is concern that vaccines may not be effective against this option.

So why are health authorities concerned about the new version?
Because they fear that combining 32 mutations can make the new version even more dangerous and contagious. =

What do we know so far?
We already know some of the 32 mutations because we found them in previous versions.

Then why worry?
Because there are new mutations that interact with known ones.

Will we discover from laboratory experiments if the new version is dangerous?
Maybe but we won't be absolutely sure.

Why would I say that?
Because in the previous months, we've heard of other variations, such as California, Peru, New York (Lambda), Nigeria, Brazil, South Africa, and even Delta plus, and as you can see, it doesn't mention everything.

But what happened at the end?
Delta prevailed because it is transmitted much easier than other variants and not only passed by, but literally ölletitei BAR just said its competitors.

So shouldn't we be worried at all?
Of course I'm not saying that. We need constant epidemiological surveillance and I believe a no-fly ban from some African countries until we have a better view of the developing situation.

I also note that in many other cases we were very concerned, but in the end, except for Alpha and Delta variants, we did not face any particular problem. So if the new option is a little more dangerous, but less contagious than Delta, then there may be little problem. /abcnews/
