It seems even quarantine makes no difference, but also understand that somehow people are sneaking into the country somehow and not caring if they bring it and those people need locked up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't seen any data yet, showing the Indian variant is the main reason behind the recent surge in cases and deaths in India. The last data I saw, released by the Indian authorities, showed that in some Indian states, including some of the most populous, the UK variant is still the predominant strain. 3 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post cormanr7 Posted May 11, 2021 Popular Post Share Posted May 11, 2021 It may be too late to stop the Indian variant. In London, almost 40% of sequenced samples now pertain to the B 1.617.2 variant https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-9561595/Coronavirus-HALF-Covid-cases-London-Indian-variant-data-suggests.html. However, the UK has a large Indian population and -until very recently- lots of flights from India which will have exacerbated the situation. Cases have been reported in numerous countries, including Indonesia (https://news.abplive.com/news/ india/indian-covid-variant-detected-in-morocco-indonesia-along-with-17-other-countries-know-why-this-variant-spread-so-fast-1456740.). Interestingly, this article claims that the indigenous Covavaxin inactivated virus vaccine (from Bharat) is effective against the mutant but it is difficult to get independent verification. Actually one could surmise that whole virus vaccines might be more effective against mutants where genomic changes are often concentrated in the spike protein. Finally, the WHO has just declared the Indian mutant a 'global health risk' https://www.cnbc.com/2021/ 05/10/who-classifies-triple-mutant-covid-variant-from-india-as-global-health-risk-.html. 3 1 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It wouldn’t be everyone. It would be just the vaccinated allowed in without quarantine... and before you rebut. Yes, early studies has shown that very few vaccinated get infected (with mild symptoms) let alone have high enough viral loads to spread. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Keep in mind, it doesn’t mean the vaccinated are getting infected with it and dying from it. It is spreading faster amongst the unvaccinated. That is why it is worrisome. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

She was the first person to sequence the SARS-2-CoV virus outside of China from a patient on Jan 8, 2020. China had so far refused to release the genome and only did so on January 12, probably because of Supaporn's work. plus 1 there rabas 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pregnant and three kids and jets from Pakistan to Bkk via Dubai . Hassle of organising that and then cost makes me wonder why she would be so eager to come back to Thailand ???? Maybe she feels that Thailand can take better care of her if the virus is raging in Pakistan, or maybe something happened to her husband and she is coming home with the kids to have family help. Who knows. Either way she is a Thai national and returned to her country of origin. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No Brit, Brasil, S.African OR Indian type of mutation Will be killing many, IT is less strong as the first virus strain. This was gold after they found it in Brittain, so nobody should be really at Risk, except of the sick and old people. But then they can have ivermectine and zink for getting better in the first stadium of infection. If live healthy, het vit D and wat healthy good, you don't have a big Risk of getting very sick from any of the virusses. Be safe. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he is suggesting many people die from or get the virus and as no mention of "large percentage" was made it seems you have misled yourself on this occasion and accused the poster of a misleading statement so perhaps a little chillout time is needed to re-read his post.
