April 5 – Denmark recently discovered a new strain of mutant novel coronavirus, which is similar to the previously found mutant novel coronavirus B.1.351 in South Africa and the mutant novel coronavirus P.1 found in Brazil, which can cause people who have been infected with the novel coronavirus to be infected again.
According to the Russian Satellite News Agency on the 5th, Christian Wejse, an associate professor in the Department of Clinical Medicine at Aarhus University in Denmark, said that the new variant virus has genomic similarities with the B.1.1.7 virus strain previously found in Kent, England, but at the parent strain base There are more spinin mutations on the ground, and Wayjs pointed out that “this may make this new variant easy to avoid antibodies, while people who have been infected with COVID-19 in the past are at increased risk of re-infection.”
Henrik Ullum, director of the Danish National Serum Institute, said that two cases of infection with new varieties have been detected.
Denmark has a good virus tracking system, and we will do timely detection of infected cases, hoping that there will be no more cases of infection with this variant.” Verjes also said that despite concerns that the effectiveness of the vaccine will weaken or even fail, the current vaccine can still prevent severe infections.
