It is very contagious – the new Corona variant could bully us in the summer

Date:

With increasing temperatures, the spread of the coronavirus has always fallen during the pandemic years – but a new variant can now ensure a larger summer wave with many infections.

The trunk (NB.1.8.1) is a successor of the no less infectious Corona variant Omikron. Although the new tribe in Great Britain has no great distribution, it is closely complied with. “NB.1.8.1 has so far been proven in a small number of Britain, but international data indicate that his share in all COVID is increasing 19 things,” said the deputy director of the British Health Authority Dr. Gayatri Amunderingam.

“Variant under observation”
In China, Singapore or Hong Kong, however, the new tribe has already led to an increase in fallen. In Austria there were only a few infections. The World Health Organization recently ranged it as a “variant under observation”.

“We will most likely experience an increase in infections in the coming months,” Lawrence Young, virologist at the University of Warwick, is also convinced. “The immunity of the population, unlike other viruses such as those in the flu, leaves Covid in warm and humid weather,” the doctor said. The laboratory showed that Nimbus can infect even more efficient human tribes than other variants. The trunk is clear to avoid in the immune system.

Expert: “Silent phase can end soon”
Other experts also see a risk of the new tribe: “It is possible that we will experience a large wave of infections as soon as NB.1.8.1 becomes dominant,” said Professor Christina Pagel, Data analyst at the University College London. Professor Steve Griffin from the University of Leeds explains: “The recent increase in cases in Southeast Asia indicates that the relatively quiet phase could end quickly.”

But there is also calming news about Nimbus: so far there is no evidence that this tribe causes serious diseases or killing.
