Corona infection in India has been declining at present. The number of patients recovering from the infection has increased every day. But a few days ago, the WHO had raised concerns about the infectivity of the Indian strain B.1.617, a 'triple mutant' of the covid virus. But this time, not the whole B.1.617, but a branch of this 'triple mutant strain', B.1.617.2, was blamed by the World Health Organization for the rapid transmission. The UN health agency also expressed concern that the triple mutant, the covid virus, could break the vaccine's protective barrier in the human body.
Just last month, the WHO declared the triple mutant B.1.617 covid virus a virus of concern. This time around, the agency said, not all but part of the Indian strain, the B.1.617.2 virus, has spread rapidly among humans. The WHO also says that the virus has a greater potential to make people sick. The third-characterized covid virus was found in Maharashtra before the second wave began in the country. On 5 October 2020, the presence of this virus was detected in Mumbai However, the virus was still acting as a 'double mutant' The two viruses B.1.617.1 and B.1.617.2 later transformed themselves into horrible shapes. The World Health Organization has recently renamed the two viruses found in India. The WHO has identified two new strains of Covid called Kappa and Delta.
“The B.1.617.2 strain has turned into its own spike protein,” WHO technical chief Maria van Kerkhov told. It has become even more deadly by removing some things in the spike protein. Compared to other variants of covid, this species can spread easily among humans Its killing power is also much higher.
This species of covid virus has been found in 53 countries of the world. The WHO has warned the general public that the B.1.617.2 triple mutant virus has made people sick by breaking the vaccine's safety zone in many cases.
