India's Double Mutation Jumps To 10 Countries. All You Need To Know

India's Double Mutation Jumps To 10 Countries. All You Need To Know

Monday, April 19, 2021 4:03 AM GMT

The new variant, which has a so-called double mutation, is thought to be fueling India's deadlier new wave of cases that has made it the world's second worst-hit country, surpassing Brazil again, and has already begun to overwhelm its hospitals and crematoriums.

With India's daily tally of Covid-19 infections surging by records, public health experts worry that a new -- possibly more virulent -- coronavirus variant could be racing through the crowded nation of more than 1.3 billion people.

India halted all major vaccine exports order by other countries recently when its cases surged. pic.twitter.com/Hop37Pjo2a The new variant, which has a so-called double mutation, is thought to be fueling India's deadlier new wave of cases that has made it the world's second worst-hit country, surpassing Brazil again, and has already begun to overwhelm its hospitals and crematoriums. India has reported more than 14.5 million Covid cases so far and more than 175,600 fatalities. "This is a variant of interest we are following," Maria Van Kerkhove, the World Health Organization's technical lead officer on Covid, told reporters Friday. "Having two of these mutations, which have been seen in other variants around the world, are concerning," she said, adding that there was a similarity with mutations that increase transmission as well as reduce neutralization, possibly stunting the ability of vaccines to curb them. The new strain underscores the insidious nature of viruses and threatens to thwart containment efforts in India, despite measures such as the world's largest lockdown last year. An exploding outbreak in India risks undoing a hard-won victory over the pathogen for others, too, especially as this strain has now jumped to at least 10 other countries.
