Christian Drosten, the renowned German virologist from University Clinic in Berlin, Charité, has expressed regret over the recent developments that brought suspension of vaccines with the AstraZeneca vaccine.
According to Drosten, the increase in thrombosis cases should be “, of course, taken with seriousties and must be verified”. Drosten stressed, that he will not make an assessment of the decision, and there is no additional information.
Because this is happening at the beginning of the third wave of Corona, it should be particularly thought of” that we need vaccine”, noted the scholar known in his radio podcast. ND, “Coronavirus-update”
British mutant will make pandemic very difficult
The current state of pandemic in Germany is not good, Drosten warns. The most infectious variable B1.1.7. It's getting more and more, part of it already gets three-quarters of infection. “We will have a situation soon after Easter as at Christmas time”, the virologist said. The Robert Koch Institute several days ago made a grim prognosis of rising infections. The situation will get worse because of the British version. Especially “crylic” will be made for the unexplored generation of people about 50 years old.
The frequency of strokes is statistical?
On Monday's Paul Ehrlich Institute, The PEI recommended cutting the vaccine with AstraZeneca. According to data from the Health Ministry, eight cases of trombones have been reported in the time frame space. The number of cases is statistically higher than in the unvaccinated population. According to the PEI, more women have been affected if there is a direct link between the vaccine and the trombone this without verifying.
Virologist Drosten has indicated that he lacks additional information on the interruption of the vaccine with AstraZeneca, but he has indicated that it should be thought, if this frequency of cases can also be a statistical problem. Thus in Germany were vaccinated with AstraZeneca persons under 65 because the recommendation of the Special Commission, STIKO, was not originally recommended for the elderly due to lack of data on the effect of the vaccine. More older people have been vaccinated in England, although the highest number of vaccines have not been increased. Drosten also mentioned the highest number of women in medical and nursing personnel who have received the vaccine. He asked the question “would this possibly paint statistics?” Women are known to have higher blood pressure.
B.1.1.7 More infectious and dangerous
Virologist Drosten has expressed some research on the British version B.1.1.7, and their balance is that this option is not only more infectious but also more dangerous. And this is not good news, especially these times and this news situation.” Studies offer evidence that this option is more lethal. / DW
