WHO director-general warns against more dangerous variant of coronavirus
A new coronavirus variant may emerge in the world, which will be even more dangerous than the delta version. The statement came from WHO Director-General Tedros Adhanom Gebreius, addressing the 138th session of the International Olympic Committee (IOC), according to the IOC’s official website. According to him, all this can lead to further spread of the virus throughout the world.
“The more the virus spreads, the more likely it is that there will be a much more dangerous version of the delta strain.” And the more options there are, the more likely it is that one of them will be able to bypass the effect of vaccines and return us to the starting point of the epidemic, “explained the head of the organization. He stated that today “an unprecedented crisis is observed, which requires unprecedented steps.”
