According to the scientists, the origin of these mutations has not been verified yet, however, they believe that one of the possible sources of these mutations could be the rats that frequent New York City's sewer system.
Even though Omicron can evade most antibodies to some degree, current Covid-19 vaccines still offer protection, say researchers.
The novel coronavirus can remain active for longer than expected even in patients with mild symptoms. People who may still be shedding active viruses 14 days after testing positive may contribute to community transmission.
Talking about how we can bring an end to the ongoing pandemic in the world, Ryan said that the chance lies only in the hands of the people.
Experts agree that it is too early to assess if this variant causes more severe infection or less compared to other variants. Read on
According to the researchers, the study shows a negative relationship between the transmission rate (R0) and both temperature and humidity at the global scale.
Known as AY.4.2, the new descendant of the Delta variant contains mutations that might give the virus survival advantages.
If you are a COVID-19 recoveree and have received both doses of vaccine, you may have acquired superhuman immunity, says a new study. Read on.
The virus's RNA code contains four letters: G, C, U, and A there are 30,000 of them in the genome. Mutation might change any one of these letters to any of the other three letters in the code. This gives about 100,000 possible single mutations in total.
Researchers have created an oral version of remdesivir that can be given to high-risk COVID-19 patients in the early stages of infection. Read on to know more.
Researchers have warned that relaxing Covid-19 restrictions prematurely could pave the way for new vaccine-resistant virus mutations.
Lambda or C.37 was first found in Peru, South America. Earlier this month, the WHO classified it as a 'Variant of Interest'. Watch the video to know everything about this new COVID-19 variant.
After 2 cases in Uttar Pradesh, 11 people in Rajasthan are infected with the Kappa variant of COVID-19. Read on to know if this is something you need to worry about.
A new study has highlighted the urgency for administering the recommended regimen of two shots of Covid-19 vaccine to protect people against Delta variant.
COVID-19 Delta strain was behind the devastating second wave of the pandemic in India and now we see the emergence of the Delta Plus mutation. Read on to know why these are termed 'variants of concern'.
A growing number of countries are reporting outbreaks associated with the B.1.617.2 variant of COVID-19 or the Delta variant. In the UK, this variant accounts for an estimated 60 per cent of new cases.
Amid a steady drop in the number of active cases in the country, NITI Aayog's Member, Health, V.K. Paul warned that the virus is changing its behaviour which may affect the kids more. Read to know what children will face in the upcoming days.
A virulent COVID-19 strain with characteristics of both UK and India variants emerges in Vietnam. Read on to know all about it.
