Nu variant is highly contagious and Infectious
Hadda Kala Duwan- sharaxaad macquul ah oo ku saabsan fidinta degdega ah ee soo ifbaxa “Maya” noocyada kala duwan ee fayraska SARS-CoV2, a new study has found this particular variant (B.1.1.529) has a much higher ability to infect and evade the immune response built through previous infections or vaccines.
In a study published in Nature journal, a team of researchers from India and other countries has found that the NU variant (or B.1.1.529 lineage) was eight times more likely to escape immunity gained through AstraZeneca or Pfizer vaccines compared to the original virus.
Sidoo kale, the NU variant was six times more likely to re-infect people who have recovered from Covid-19.
Sida laga soo xigtay UCL isla toddobaadkan, this new Covid variant accounted for more than 80% kiisaska cusub ee Maraykanka. Khubarada caafimaadku waxay sheegaan inay caado u tahay in nooc cusub oo fayras ah uu aad u faafo maxaa yeelay badiyaa wuxuu noqdaa mid aad waxtar u leh oo si fudud loo kala qaado.
Bulshooyinka leh heerar tallaal oo hooseeya, gaar ahaan dhulka miyiga ah ee daryeelkoodu kooban yahay, the Nu variant could be even more damaging. Tan waxaa horay loogu arkay adduunka oo dhan wadamo faqiir ah oo tallaalka COVID-19 uusan ahayn mid la heli karo. Khubarada caafimaadku waxay sheegeen in saamaynta la dareemi karo tobanaan sano ee soo socda.
Nooca ugu badan ee COVID-19 ayaa diiradda saaray ka hortagga
1. Nu is more contagious than the other virus strains.
2. Dadka aan la tallaalin ayaa halis ku jira.
3. Nu could lead to ‘hyperlocal outbreaks.’
4. There is still more to learn about Nu Variant.
5. Vaccination is the best protection against Nu Variant.
What do we know so far about this new Covid variant?
Of the 59 laboratory-confirmed cases of the new variant, three were in Botswana, two were in Hong Kong among people who had travelled from South Africa, and the rest were confirmed in South Africa.
Of course, it is not necessarily time to panic. We simply do not know enough yet about the virulence and transmissibility of this strain. And mutations can work in either direction. But it is further evidence that we cannot assume with Covid that it will naturally evolve to become less potent or simply burn out
