A new variant of the delta was discovered in Russia – it is more contagious

According to the representative of Rospotrebnadzor Kamil Khafizov, the likelihood of widespread distribution of this variety in the Russian Federation is sufficient.

“Yes, the AY.4.2 variant of the Delta line is already in isolated cases in Russia, as follows from the results of sequencing the genomes of the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus,” he said.
