Scientists monitor new Covid-19 variant detected in SA, Botswana and Hong Kong

Only 10 cases have been confirmed in the three countries by genomic sequencing but there is concern that the number of mutations could enable the virus to evade immunity, reportsDr Tom Peacock, a virologist at Imperial College London, posted details of the new variant on a Peacock said the high number of spike mutations suggested the B.1.1.529 variant could be of concern but added that it could also be an “odd cluster” that was not very transmissible.

: “At present, there are early warning signs from the laboratory data that a fourth wave may be starting in Gauteng.”

Absolue rubbish....LIES All this....but during looting and elections ...NOTHING Just a strategy to create panic to make people want to vaccinate. We are not stupid

C. 1.2 variant landed in SA 😢

Whoever sent, tell them to go to hell with their variant....masepa!!!

I don't believe it's correct narrative. They said South Africans are hesitant to take vaccine only to lie now so that we run for vaccinations? No. We passed Matric and intelligence is galore.

Haai you are trying shem

There are countries who are having sporting events with full capacity and this virus choose to come all the way to SA and Botswana, this diamond is getting us killed I tell you!!!!

Huh

To the world statistics our country has to be involved in everything bad, with our leaders & media playing along & believing all this sh%! F&!!!

Kanti lamashayina niwavumelani ukuthi aze la? 😡

Lock down !?this time only your government officials will be on lockdown WATCH

Yes pushing the narrative again i see.

Kanti this Variants Viruses only start in SA then spread to other countries.. Mmmhhh

Stock up, take leave before the 16th December before ivalwa iCountry...we are in for a bumpy ride 🙄😩

Hong Kong i knew it the variant landed fo OR Tambo

Hai fok!

Told y'all this will happen when you choose to get a vaccine that does not stop transmission. Natural immunity is the only way to go. Especially since these vaccines are variant based.
