“Coronavirus mutates four times less than the spin virus and eight times more than the flu virus. Mutations are random, not caused by other things, as some experts say.” This was stated by the director of the National Center for Infectious and Parasitic Diseases Prof. Todor Kantardzhiev at the regular briefing of the NIGHT.
He argues that simultaneous vaccination of the world’s population is very important to avoid other mutations.
“The EU has done everything possible for countries to start vaccinations at the same time. I don’t want you to be scared and create fear. Things are more relaxed with cellular immunity. There is no such thing as a vaccine that doesn’t work.
They have little effect on the South African, Brazilian and Indian strains. Insufficient co-vaccination in India has led to the new strain and its mutations. We in Bulgaria follow the new mutations. Apart from mutations in the British, we have not caught Indian, Brazilian, South African. Unfortunately, imports of such cases have been detected in neighboring EU Member States. “
“At the moment we must continue to look for the National Center. The most important thing is that everyone returning from abroad with territories with such genetic variants that have been imported must carefully observe the quarantine measures. When returning from abroad, do not rush the next day to you gather the whole family and wait 10 days “, the professor advises.
According to him, currently in Bulgaria is only the British version of the coronavirus. “100% is just the British version. That’s the bad thing, when one option is more easily contagious, it displaces the others,” he said.
For his part, the head of the drug agency, Bogdan Kirilov, announced that there would be new data on vaccines in the coming months. “All vaccines are being tested for children over the age of 12. In June, everything will become clear about Pfizer.
For the Modern vaccine, I think things will happen the same way. It all depends on when the information will be submitted.
Not all companies have tested whether vaccines can be combined.
The resigned Minister of Health reported on the situation with electronic prescriptions.
“Over 50,000 prescriptions have already been issued. E-health is a great success for our team. We have made a commitment and this is already a fact. The beginning has been set. If we want to have a complete medical record, we must have information,” said Minister Angelov.
I wish you a nice holiday. Be healthy, especially you and your loved ones, “Angelov concluded.
