Corona Delta Variant- New Delhi: Corona Delta Variant remains of concern to the whole world, including India. The delta variant of the corona virus is more serious than the other variants. So far, more than three crore 17 lakh of people have been infected with the crown in India. Although most people are no longer infected. But more than four lakh people are still infected. Most of these cases are of the delta variant of the corona virus. There is also some confusion among people regarding the Delta variant, which we are responding to here.
Does the vaccine not work on a person infected with the delta variant?
The vaccine is considered the greatest weapon against corona infection. But some people still believe that the vaccine is not effective on the delta variant of Corona. It is a bad thought. All vaccines are effective against the corona variants. According to a study conducted by the ICMR, Bharat Biotech’s Covaccine (BBV152) is effective against the Delta Plus (AY.1) variant of the corona virus. The ICMR study shows that Covaccine is effective against the Delta, Delta AY.1 and B.1.617.3 variants.
Bharat Biotech, completing the final analysis of the covaccine efficacy of the phase III trials on July 3, said that the efficacy of the covaccine against Kovid was 77.8% and B.1.617.2 against the delta variant was 65.2%.
Does the delta variant not spread after taking the vaccine?
The delta variant of the crown can be easily spread like smallpox. A US report states that people who have taken all doses of the vaccine can also spread the delta variant as much as unvaccinated people. The presence of the virus in the nose and throat of people who have received the vaccine remains the same as in those who did not receive the vaccine.
The delta variant is more prevalent than the viruses that cause MERS, SARS, Ebola, colds, seasonal flu, and older mother. And it’s as contagious as smallpox. This variant can lead to serious danger, for which action is needed now.
3 times less risk of infection after a full vaccination (Corona Delta Variant)
People who take two doses of the vaccine are three times less likely to get a covid infection than people who are not vaccinated. This has been claimed in research. About 98,233 people were studied under the direction of researchers from Imperial College London. Those who were not vaccinated had a prevalence of infection three times higher than those who received both doses of the Kovid vaccine, at 1.21% versus 0.4%.
