The coronavirus, like most microorganisms, changes in order to extend its survival and in the case of SARS-CoV-2 some variants have appeared.
The previous week the discovery of a new variant of coronavirus was reported in New York, United States, in the body of a little girl who would have presented high levels of viral load.
Two factors that lead to a greater probability that a virus changes and a new variant will appear are the number of people infected and the time they have to face the coronavirus infection.
That is, the more people are infected and their infection time is longer, the more likely the virus will change and a new variant of the virus will be born. microorganism.
The only way to combat the coronavirus pandemic is to develop a mass vaccination process to achieve high levels of immunity so that the virus does not find organisms that can infect and thus disappear until it is a small threat.
Unfortunately, vaccination processes develop unevenly between countries, since nations that have the economic resources can access vaccines in a more rapid and massive way, while in other countries it is difficult to obtain doses basic.
Experts recommend continuing to wear a mask as a biosecurity measure, even after you have received the two doses of the coronavirus vaccine, in addition to maintaining the habit of washing your hands with soap and water each time you arrive at your destination.
