New Delhi: Corona infection is increasing in the country. The World Health Organization has raised further concerns. A new sub-variant of Omicron is also found in India. The variant, known as BA2.75, is spreading rapidly, said Tedros Adhanom Ghebreyesus, director-general of the World Health Organization. “In the last two weeks, the number of corona cases in the world has increased by about 30 percent,” he said. The number of corona cases increased in the last week in four of the seven sub-regions of the World Health Organization.
“Corona infections are increasing in Europe and the United States due to BA4 and BA5 variants,” Hu said. On the other hand, in countries like India, sub-liners of BA 2.75 variant are found. We are keeping an eye on this. “
Meanwhile, World Health Organization Chief Scientist Soumya Swaminathan posted a video on Twitter saying, “The search for the BA2.75 sub-variant is the first in India. This sub variant is also found in 10 countries. A limited number of sub-families have been found. However, the spike protein of this sub-variant has undergone several mutations. But it is not known whether he will resign from that post. We are keeping an eye on the whole affair. We have to wait for that. “
According to the Technical Advisory Group of the World Health Organization, the evolution of the corona virus is being monitored regularly. Whenever a virus emerges and differs from a previous virus, we identify it as a variant of concern. The spread of Corona has been gradually increasing for the past four weeks. Between June 26 and July 3, 4.8 million infected people were found worldwide.
Generally, one of the variants of Omicron circulating in the world is BA.5 and BA.4. The BA5 variant has been found in 63 countries. On the other hand, the BA4 variant was found in 63 countries.
