New US variant BA.12 of Corona found in Bihar: 10 times more dangerous new strain than Omicron's BA.2 variant


Posted on 28th Apr 2022 12:34 pm by rohit kumar

A new variant BA.12 of Corona has been found in Bihar. This is said to be 10 times more dangerous than the BA.2 variant of the third wave. Cases of new strains detected in Indira Gandhi Institute of Medical Sciences are very less in the country. One or two cases have been reported in Delhi. Now a study is being done about this new variant BA.12. Scientist says that BA.12 was first detected in the US. In such a situation, this variant has given sleep to the health department.

 

Revealed in genome sequencing of 13 samples

 

Genome sequencing of 13 samples was done at the Indira Gandhi Institute of Medical Sciences. The shocking report has come after passing the sample through a long process. Namrata Kumari, HOD Professor of Microbiology, IGIMS, Patna, says that the sequencing work was stopped for two months, as the number of new cases decreased. Corona's infection had also become quite common, but due to the sudden increase in cases in the country, sequencing of samples from Bihar was done.

 

Recently, a shocking report has come in one of the 13 samples that came for sequencing. Scientist Dr. Abhay says that BA.2 has been found in 12 samples, but BA.12 has been found in one sample. Scientists say that the ability to infect BA.12 is many times higher than that of BA.2. Experts also believe that it is 10 times more dangerous than Omicron's sub-variant BA.2.

 

Study of infected with a new variant

 

A full investigation is being done to get infected with the variant detected in the new US of Corona. Since the report on genome sequencing, its case study is being investigated. Because the matter is related to Patna, for this reason those who came in contact with him are also being investigated. Experts say that if we talk about the XE variant and the BA.12 variant, then there is not much data available about it, but BA.12 has already been detected in many places in the world and it was first detected in the US. it was done.

 

Know how the new variant is

 

The new variant BA.12 is completely different from BA.1 and BA.2.

 

This variant is the new mutant variant of Omicron itself.

 

It is also quite different from the XE variant.

 

XE is the recombination variant and it is the mutant variant.

 

BA.12 is a sub-variant like Omicron's BA.1 and BA.2

 

Dangerous entry of Bihar Corona

 

The detection of a new variant of the corona at the Indira Gandhi Institute of Medical Sciences is considered to be a major threat in the state, as genome sequencing for the coronavirus was not yet done. The case had become mild after the third wave of Corona had cooled down, but after increasing the case in the country, the investigation is being done again.

 

Due to the lack of detailed study data, it is currently being investigated. But BA.12 was first detected in the USA and there were many cases also. Dr. Namrata Kumari of Indira Gandhi Institute of Medical Sciences says that even though the infectiousness of this variant is being said to be high, there is no need to panic with the new variant. The situation of corona in the state is under control and study is going on on the new variant.
