After Omicron, now the new variant of Corona, Neokov, has raised the concern of the world. The scientists of Wuhan have made a big claim about this. They say that this variant has been found in South Africa. Both its infection and death rate are very high. It can kill one out of every three patients. Let us tell you that Wuhan is the same city from where the corona epidemic spread in 2020.
According to Russian news agency Sputnik, this variant is not new. This corona variant is associated with the Mars Cove virus. Its patients were first found in West Asian countries in 2012 and 2015. This Neokov variant has just been seen inside bats in South Africa. Previously seen only in animals.
According to research published on the bioRxiv website, Neokov and its partner virus PDF-2180-CoV can infect humans. According to researchers from Wuhan University and China Academy of Sciences, only one mutation is needed in this new coronavirus to infect human cells.
On the other hand, Russia's Department of Virology and Biotechnology said that at present the potential of this variant to spread to humans is low. We should examine its potential and risk.
Panic of sub-strain BA.2 also
On the other hand, Omicron's sub-strain (BA.2) has also made the world sleepy. Omicron's sub-variant is also at greater risk because even RT-PCR tests are unable to detect it. So far, this new sub-variant has knocked in 40 countries including India and it is believed that this variant can spread very fast to other countries of the world.
What are mutations and variants?
Mutations are changes in the basic genomic structure of the virus. These changes give a new form to the virus, which is called a variant.
How many variants has WHO declared of concern and interest so far?
The WHO keeps on adding and subtracting variants by category of interest and concern by reviewing them from time to time. Before changing the category of a variant, the technical advisory group does a detailed analysis of it. The decision to change the category of the variant is taken only after the recommendations of the group.
