The head of the European Commission, Ursula von der Leyen, said that the Indian strain of coronavirus is of concern in the European Union and will certainly be the dominant strain of COVID-19 in the world.
India's Delta is more dangerous, but full vaccination with Moderna and AstraZeneca provides good protection against this strain, the head of the EC said at a briefing in Berlin.
“It's a matter of time when it becomes dominant,” stated von der Leyen.
As the website kp.ru wrote, the Delta coronavirus strain has already spread to 93 countries around the world.
Earlier, infectious disease specialists named the symptoms of the Indian strain of the coronavirus. So, diarrhea is often observed in those infected with the delta variant of coronavirus infection. In addition, they often have blood clots, which provoke gangrene. Indian strain patients also complain of hearing impairment and severe indigestion.
Russian Deputy Prime Minister Tatyana Golikova said that, as a rule, the symptoms of the Indian strain of coronavirus are similar to the manifestations of the common cold – a runny nose, sore throat and headache.
Recall that three vaccines against coronavirus have been registered in Russia – Sputnik V, EpiVacCorona, KoviVak. In the coming days, the fourth Russian Sputnik Light vaccine will go into circulation.
The Gamaleya Center reported on the effectiveness of the Sputnik V vaccine against the Indian strain of coronavirus.
