STOCKHOLM, July 23 — Increased free testing, contact tracing and other steps are needed to fight the Covid-19 Delta variant, now dominant in much of Europe, the World Health Organisation and the EU’s disease agency warned today.

“WHO recommends that countries increase access to free of charge testing, expand sequencing, incentivize quarantine for contacts and isolation for confirmed cases, strengthen contact tracing to break chains of transmission and ensure those most at risk among our populations are vaccinated,” the joint statement said.

Two doses of Pfizer, AstraZeneca Covid-19 shots effective against Delta variant, study finds | Malay MailLONDON, July 22 ― Two doses of Pfizer or AstraZeneca's Covid-19 vaccine are nearly as effective against the highly transmissible Delta coronavirus variant as they are against the previously dominant Alpha variant, a study published yesterday showed. Officials say vaccines are highly effective... DGHisham i right Sinovac is as good? Why study shows the other? Mala mail is spreading the same fake propaganda as Reuters and is misleading the public. Who is the editor of malay mail? Pfizer and AZ are not working well against the delta variant based on latest surges at UK, USA and Israel despite having the highest vacinations rates It is western nation propaganda against China lah. If u spend time reading about this topic u would notice that generally not so great report about Sinovac is published by western media or Hong Kong or countries not friendly to China. So please trust Dr Moor Hisham.
