The world has come a long way in the fight against the Coronavirus, but the new variant of Covid-19 could become a threat to the efforts the world has made so far to eradicate the coronavirus. This was written by Microsoft co-founder Bill Gates in his 'Gates Notes' published on Thursday.
Gates writes, "I have been holding meetings with experts for the last one year to prevent the growing infection of Covid-19." Only one question is being asked by experts at each meeting - how will the new variants of Corona affect our efforts to end the epidemic? If you also want to understand this, then you need to know these five things about the variants.
It is necessary to update the vaccine according to the changing variants
If you have got a dose of the vaccine, it means that you have fought a variant of the coronavirus. The virus keeps changing and developing all the time. So we must keep updating our vaccine according to the changing variants every year.
The rate of development of Covid-19 is half as compared to other influenza viruses.
All types of viruses change and develop. But not all viruses develop at the same rate and the same way. Some flu changes rapidly. Others develop slowly. Fortunately, the rate of development of Covid-19 is half that of other influenza viruses.
We are hearing about new variants every day. The virus is spread across the world, due to which it is getting more time to develop and change. After infection cases decline, the development of new variants will probably slow down. Some experts also believe that we have fought the most dangerous variants of the coronavirus. However the Covid-19 has surprised us even before, and it may surprise us again.
The virus is changing, but this is the only way to end the epidemic.
The good news is that many vaccines used worldwide today appear to be successful in preventing serious diseases. Some vaccines are also working on new variants. However, more data is needed to find out how effective each vaccine is against different variants. But the initial figures are quite impressive.
The big question now is, do we need to update the vaccines to eliminate the variants? Regulators and pharmaceutical companies are working on the revised vaccine. If needed, it can come into the market in a couple of months. Here in the United States - While most people will likely get vaccinated by the end of summer, some people may even get a booster shot that will protect us from additional variants.
The best way to prevent new variants from emerging is to completely stop the transmission of the virus. If we are vigilant about social distancing, masks, and vaccinations, we can end the epidemic very soon.
The presence of a virus in any corner of the world can become a threat to the whole world
Due to the new variants of Corona, it has become even more important than the vaccine is available everywhere. The presence of Covid-19 anywhere is a threat to the health of the whole world. Therefore the corona vaccine must be made available everywhere. If we do not deliver the vaccine to every corner of the earth, then we have to live with the possibility that a very dangerous variant of the virus may come out or we may even see a new version.
Our efforts are making new variants of Corona complicated
There is no doubt that variants are complicating our efforts to end this epidemic. But the good thing is that we know what we need to do to eliminate the virus. For now, you should follow the guidelines issued by the Department of Health to ensure your safety and get the corona vaccine done as soon as possible.
