What Is India’s 'Double Mutant' Coronavirus?
The exponential rise in Covid cases in India has become a cause of concern for the government as well as those studying the nature of the virus. The daily Covid-19 cases in India breached the 2 lakh mark on April 15th for the first time. With a high number of people getting infected with the virus, the chances of mutant strains have also increased.
Recently, the National Institute of Virology (NIV) detected a strain of coronavirus with a double mutation in samples collected from Maharashtra. The double mutant strain of Coronavirus has been named B.1.617.
Here’s everything you need to know about the double mutant strain.
What does the strain contain?
The B.1.617 variant contains mutations from two separate virus variants, namely E484Q and L452R. The double mutant strain was found in samples of saliva collected from Maharashtra, Punjab, and Delhi.
According to health experts, the L452R variant was first found in the US, whereas the E484Q variant is indigenous.
The double mutant variant was identified by carrying out genomic sequencing on the latest samples by the Indian SARS-CoV-2 Consortium on Genomics (INSACOG), a group of 10 national laboratories under India's health ministry.
How dangerous is a double mutant strain?
A virus keeps mutating as it spreads,and like others, the novel coronavirus keeps changing in small ways as it passes from one person to another.
The constituent mutated strains E484Q and L452R were found to be highly infective with high transmission rates. Thus they make B.1.617 more infectious and deadly.
According to the health ministry, the new variant could also increase infection rates and easily surpass immune defences.

My Boss, who is Indian, was planning to go back to India to visit his elderly parents since he was not able to víisit them last year. His wife & children were planning to go in June and he will join them in July!
I wonder if he would dare to go now.

Mổi năm ổng đều về đó thăm his parents. Sometimes đi với vợ con, sometimes đi 1 mình về bểnh chở his parents đi annual check ups với BS. Năm rồi 0 về được cho nên mới tuần rồi ở đây họ vừa cho phép mấy đứa nhỏ dưới 18 tuổi là ổng lật đật chở 2 đứa đi chich liền để by June thì tụi nó sẽ được đầy đủ 2 mũi luôn.
Điệu này chắc phải hoãn chuyến đi to later và có lẽ chí 1 mình ổng đi được nếu tụi nhỏ đi học lại.

Re: B.1.617
The UN health agency said the B.1.617 variant of COVID-19 first found in India had as of Tuesday been detected in over 1,200 sequences uploaded to the GISAID open-access database "from at least 17 countries".
"Most sequences were uploaded from India, the United Kingdom, U.S. and Singapore," the WHO said in its weekly epidemiological update on the pandemic.
The WHO recently listed B.1.617—which counts several sub-lineages with slightly different mutations and characteristics—as a "variant of interest".
But so far it has stopped short of declaring it a "variant of concern".

Covid-19 mutated into deadly variants that if contracted, you will diẹ The government take drastic measure by rounding up those that has the virus into the so call "Quarantine camp" ..
