COVID-19 VACCINE, Gravitas | Delta Plus variant: The new worry for the world.

 

The delta variant has now spread to more than

80 countries 8-0 the world is struggling

to control it

the variant meanwhile is mutating so

what we have now is called the delta

plus

it has already spread to at least nine

countries our next report tells you

why the world needs to watch out for

this one

mutations have supercharged the virus

the delta variant drove india's deadly

second wave

now this mutation has taken another form

it is called the delta plus and it is

spreading

reports say its earlier sample has been

traced back to europe

in india the delta plus variant has been

detected in at least

three states it is believed to be more

infectious

there is no indication yet if it's

deadlier than the other variants

but experts are already worried about it

because this variant could trigger the

next wave of cases worldwide

reports say around 200 cases of the

delta plus variant

have been detected across the world

the variant has been found in at least

nine countries

this includes the united kingdom

portugal

switzerland poland japan nepal

china and russia in india alone

30 cases of the delta plus have been

detected 

the indian government has termed delta

plus as a variant

of interest scientists are still

studying if this variant can escape the

immunity of vaccines

because there is reason to believe that

the delta plus is resistant to

monoclonal antibody cocktails

this is a treatment method where

patients are injected with artificially

manufactured proteins that prevent the

virus from attacking the body

if dangerous mutations were not enough

new findings into the long-term

impact of wuhan virus infections have

sparked fresh concerns

scientists in the UK have been trying to

understand the effect of the wuhan virus

on the brain they have found that

even a mild infection could lead to

substantial loss of gray matter

in the brain british researchers

examined brain

many of patients before and after they

got infected

most of them had mild to moderate forms

of infection 

their many suggested brain damage

in areas that help us detect smell and

taste

cognitive function and memory formation

not everyone will suffer brain damage

from the wuhan virus but the study shows

the possibility can't be ruled out

and with new mutations the risk of

long-term

illness is only growing
