Researchers say that for both sub-lineages (ba.1 and ba.2) the risk of becoming infected is higher in people who have not yet been vaccinated.
Coronavirus Omicron Variant New Version: A new version of Omicron (Omicron), the infectious variant of the corona virus, is being said to be more infectious than the original virus. This claim has been made in a study conducted in Denmark. Danish researchers tested the infection of the Omicron sublineage ba.1 (ba.1 omicron variant) versus ba.2 (ba.2 omicron variant) on 17,975 people and 8541 households, and concluded that the new variant was the original variant. is more infectious than
This study revealed that the rapid spread of ba.2 may be related to the inherent increased infectivity of the sublineage. Researchers say that the ba.2 sub-lineage of the Omicron variant of the corona during the study is strong against the body’s immunity. That is, evidence has also been found in the study about its strong ability to avoid the body’s immune system.
This study has been done by the researchers of the Staten Serum Institute (SSI). Researchers say that the rate of re-infection in families infected with ba.2 was found to be 39 percent, while in families infected with ba.1 this rate was only 29 percent. In this case, the ba.2 sublineage is more infectious than the ba.1.
Researchers say that for both sub-lineages (ba.1 and ba.2) the risk of getting infected was higher in people who have not yet been vaccinated. At the same time, the risk of infection of ba.2 has also been there in those who have got the vaccine dose. ba.2 Infections can spread more rapidly than infected people who are not vaccinated.
The infection spreads faster than people infected with ba.2 who have been vaccinated against Kovid. At the same time, the infection spreads less from people who have got the vaccine infected with ba.1 than them. Apart from SSI, scientists from Technical University of Denmark and University of Copenhagen Statistics, Denmark were also involved in this research study.
