The coronavirus delta mutation spreads faster and is more contagious, but clinically it does not differ from other previous variants of COVID-19 that we have encountered. This was announced by the infectious disease specialist Assoc. Prof. Atanas Mangarov, quoted by TrafficNews.
BLITZ recalls that the new modification is becoming more and more serious in our country. The National Center for Infectious and Parasitic Diseases announced that the first two patients from the Plovdiv region have already been confirmed.
“We learn retrospectively from sequencing the samples of our patients, who have already been prescribed that they were with Delta, but we did not understand. That is, they do not differ clinically from the other options “, explained the specialist.
According to him, at the moment it is not possible to say whether the mortality rate is higher, as we do not do such mass sequencing, but so far there is no need to worry.
“I think that a significant part of the country’s population, unfortunately we do not know exactly how many, have already encountered this virus. People who have done it naturally will not get sick from the Delta option. However, it is not very safe for the vaccinated, as can be seen from what is happening in Israel and Great Britain “, added Assoc. Prof. Mangarov.
