We are not completely free from the threat of Covid !!!!!!!!!! "Concern about the latest variant of Covid BA.2.86"

The countries of the world are moving forward in the assessment that we are almost freed from the threat of the Covid-19 disease.

But actually we are not completely free from the threat of Covid. But we can't hide or run away from the fear of Covid. That is why we are moving forward by fighting against Covid. At the same time, there is no point in firmly believing that the Covid era is over and that there is no need to fear Covid anymore. Because there are cases of covid in every interval. Deaths also occur.

If the disease spreads in a careless situation and the mutated variants return as more severe, we will have to see even stronger waves of covid. Experts, including those from the World Health Organization, frequently remind us of this.

Now there is concern about the latest variant of Covid. Its name is BA.2.86. It can be said that this is the latest variant of the Covid virus called Omicron, which was discovered in November 2021.

The World Health Organization and the US Centers for Disease Control and Prevention started tracking BA. The 2.86 virus variant is also in the news. So far only six cases have been confirmed as belonging to this variant. That too in four countries.

BA.2.86 covid cases have been confirmed in US, UK, Israel and Denmark. Because it is a variant that has been genetically modified many times, it is sure to beat all currently available vaccines. However, the advice given by the health sector is that it is better to take a booster dose of the vaccine.

A continuing concern now is how dangerous it can be, given that it can quickly enter the human body and has changed so much from previous variants. But the researchers say that it is not possible to say anything for sure about this matter.

There is no difference in any of the covid symptoms, while there is no information about the severity of the disease and the speed of transmission. Experts say that we should do the same things that we usually do for the prevention of covid and follow the same preparations in this case as well.

In the last few months, there has been a situation where the cases of Covid are increasing in the US, Europe and Asia. In this context, it can be said that the new virus variant creates a lot of uncertainty. At the same time, the researchers share the hope that soon it will be possible to understand how dangerous this variant is, how much it will backfire in terms of death rate and the increase of covid cases.
