Delta is coming: the most dangerous strain of coronavirus goes to Europe

24

On June 21, a complete lifting of antivirus restrictions in the UK was planned. The country's authorities and exhausted population were set to celebrate the victory over the COVID-19 pandemic, as well as its Kent and British strains, dubbed "Alpha Option". However, everything turned out to be much more complicated and the government announced that "it is necessary to wait a little."

Experts from European countries are sounding the alarm, the most dangerous strain of coronavirus B.1.617.2 (the Indian variant of COVID-19, called the "Delta variant") is coming, it goes to Europe from other regions. Delta is 60% more infectious than Alpha and much more dangerous.



The WHO warned that the Delta strain has already been identified in 80 countries of the world, its spread and mutations continue. At the same time, persons who have had a previous illness or have undergone a single vaccination do not have reliable protection against infection. Its symptoms are similar to those of a cold (headache or muscle pain, nasal congestion and sore throat). initially there may be no fever, cough, or loss of smell. Therefore, this type of coronavirus is considered insidious.

In Germany, the Delta strain is still not widespread, but this is a temporary phenomenon, since the number of infections doubles daily. Local doctors warn that it is still necessary to wear masks and it is too early to remove the imposed restrictions. They ask German tourists not to repeat the mistakes of last year, when they brought "gifts" from other countries for their compatriots.

Head of the Chancellery of the German Prime Minister Helge Braun said in an interview with RedaktionsNetzwerk Deutschland that he recommends German football fans not to go to the Euro 2020 semi-final and final matches, as they will be held in London. At the same time, representatives of the UK health system informed the public that the Pfizer / BioNTech vaccine is 96% guaranteed that after two doses a person does not go to the hospital with the Delta strain (in the worst case, it will suffer in a mild form at home), while the vaccine from Oxford / Astrazeneca provides a 92% guarantee. Health workers clarified that vaccination does not guarantee 100 percent immunity.

    Thunder will not strike, the man will not cross himself! So let's see at what mortality rate Russians will begin to vaccinate, what will defeat the distrust of the authorities' actions brought up for decades or the desire to defeat the disease. Will people demonstrate against vaccine coercion or go to vaccination centers?
    By September, the people will return from vacations, where they will mix well all types of mutations from the vastness of the country, then in transit the people will polish all this in Moscow, and in September-October the June figures may turn out to be a dream.

      What does the lack of confidence in the actions of the authorities have to do with it? You yourself ran for vaccination with the whole herd, but Bibi FSE, he is not. So did you trust him or what? If you did, why FSE? Or did they not trust, but obediently walked under the yoke of the dictator?

      Will people demonstrate against vaccine coercion or go to vaccination centers?

      Why don't you sit quietly? You got it with your dreams of demonstrations, imported agitators.

        Actually, I am also for compulsory vaccination, 123 (which is what Alexander writes about). Of course, except for those for whom this vaccination is contraindicated (well, we have this category of citizens and knows about itself - for health reasons there are a significant part of contraindications).
        BUT! There is a significant category of citizens who, having heard enough of idiots screaming from every iron, about the "harmfulness, uselessness, mortal danger" of vaccinations (and there are also those who decided to "see how others will work"). This whole sect of "anti-vaccine" or "free people" who vote (how strange - who gave these LIARS the opportunity to lie in the media?) Publicly, why are they not involved in court? A dozen or two would have been condemned - the rest would have been discouraged! The main thing is that these enemies would then tell in the same media WHO gave them instructions to carry a lie, FOR WHOSE money, by what intent they did it.
        And you know the most interesting thing, 123, what? And the fact that these citizens have already IMMEDIATED THE SECRET! And they yell at others - don't get vaccinated!
        In addition, Russian experts say that Sputnik is also successfully opposing the Delta. And the article itself is a reprint and compilation of Western resources (by the way, Sputnik says nothing at all!). IS THIS WEIRD ???

          Perhaps this is more than just "these citizens", at least not only them. Pay attention to (2:54), which talks about the previous video.



          In addition, Russian experts say that Sputnik is also successfully opposing the Delta.

          It is difficult for a non-expert to judge. The topic is complex. As far as I represent, no vaccine in the world gives a 100% guarantee, Sputnik is at least one of the best.
          It seems to people that this is all somewhere there and will not happen to them.
          I looked at the latest statistics, in our region, in a day + 88 was revealed, less than at the peak, but still ... Well, the authorities are not finalizing the campaign. need to be more active.

            And the authorities, most likely, are simply afraid.
            And about the "harm" ... If people were dying from vaccination, then do you think this liberoid evil spirits would have missed the opportunity to trumpet the whole planet about this?

              The authorities operate in different ways.

              Meanwhile, another Russian region - the Nenets Autonomous Okrug - has introduced mandatory vaccination against Covid-19 for at least 60% of several categories of citizens due to the complication of the situation with the incidence. According to the regional government, people over 60 years old and with chronic diseases, employees of medical and educational organizations, transport, law enforcement agencies, trade, services, government and municipal employees, students over 18 years old were obliged to vaccinate. Earlier, Moscow, the Moscow region, Kuzbass, Sakhalin, Tula, Tver and Leningrad regions, as well as St. Petersburg, where officials fell under compulsory immunization, announced the mandatory vaccination of certain categories of workers.

    Washington is letting in and allowing gas all over the world, and the farther, the more terrifying, and they have only one goal - to leave on earth only their "golden billion" from someone chosen on the planet earth, and the remaining billions of the population will go to fertilize and those 100 million North American Indians whose bones cover the lands of the modern United States. They could destroy the entire population of our planet in a month, but, in their opinion, this is too inhuman, so we will die slowly but surely.

        Wikipedia:

        Historian David Stannard believes that Native American populations, including Hawaii, fell victim to the "North American genocidal war," admitting that most Indians died in devastating epidemics from colonial infections, and he estimates that nearly 100 million died as a result of his called the "American Holocaust". Stannard's views were shared by Kirkpatrick Stiyl, Ben Kiernan, Lenore Stiffarm, Phil Leie Jr. and others. These views were further developed in the publications of Ward Churchill, a former professor at the University of Colorado at Boulder, who, in particular, expressed the opinion that "the work was done by malicious intent, not by nature.

        something like this, Alex, and now our "partner-enemies" have begun to destroy everything they do not need humanity, just like almost 500 years ago, and without any traditional and nuclear weapons, and now all the viruses released by America mutate on earth into a terrible monster , which will "devour" the entire population of the planet, except for those who have been grafted into the antidote for the future, and these are the Rockefellers, Dupons, Soros and others. slaves, but the Slavs and many other ethnic groups do not belong to these lucky ones.

    Your reaction is not entirely clear ...
    What is the connection between Bibi and how we ran for the vaccine? Bibi - no more than a hired manager - was, is not. Confidence in vaccination is formed through the opinion of the expert community and responsible action by the authorities. Israelis who go somewhere under the yoke of a dictator - is this humor like that?

    Why don't you sit quietly? You got it with your dreams of demonstrations, imported agitators.

    And again, some ridiculous reaction. I'm just interested in the phenomenon of vaccination in Russia. As a person, it would be much more pleasant for me if the people went to the vaccination centers, and not to the demonstration.

    Whose dream?

    Russians in general and Muscovites in particular (if you go to demonstrations, and not to vaccinations).

      Those. Are you also for compulsory? I am. Because there is a problem of a drop in the level of antibodies even in vaccinated (within a year or two), which means that the risk of catching this infection increases after the expiration of the vaccination period.
      No wonder that in the USSR, vaccination of the population helped to eradicate many viral diseases that were a scourge in their time.

    Ha, rub the conversations. Everyone has their own head on their shoulders. Someone believes in fairy tales, someone in evil spirits, and someone with a cool head takes it and goes to get vaccinated. I did, my whole family is vaccinated too. And I went there with the thought that it would be better to be on the list of vaccinated than on the list of those who had been ill.

    It's good for you - there is a dilemma (whether to be vaccinated or not), but in this country cursed by all gods (Ruin) there is not even a vaccination. We live according to Ilf and Petrov - the West will help us. And the neighbors are watching - when this unfinished one will fall apart.

      And we don't understand otherwise, Alexander. They dismissed the people ... I don't want to ... Here, damn it, there is a question of survival, and these are all talking about "freedoms" ... Don't get vaccinated! Only THEN, WHEN YOU'RE BREATHING, DO NOT RUN TO THE HOSPITAL - if you are to be a principled opponent of everything and everyone in the Russian Federation, die at home! There is no need to go to hospitals because of illness and beg doctors - SAVE-HELP !!! (this is not for you)
      And in general, it is necessary to track these "activists-opponents" and spread rot to such an extent that they HAVE DUMPED FROM RUSSIA BY YOURSELF !!! I do not like how everything is arranged in the Russian Federation - let them bring them down to Europe-America! And then we have babysitting with them, as with ... little ones (let's put it mildly) ...

        Nope. Let them come to the polls and change the country for the better.
        Itself took root as soon as the opportunity appeared. Do not confuse a private, albeit important, case with freedom of choice - it should remain and de jure will remain. But de facto it will be yours. And it should be the same - which is what we should strive for ...

          Well, you are a confused! wink But in the USSR, such problems did not arise! So - everything is in formation ... Although by force, there were no problems with the infection.
          And in general, those who, due to contraindications, cannot be vaccinated, will not be forced. And who is contraindicated - they themselves know. And then those who themselves were grafted (!) Intermeddle, and yell to others about harm! That's what I'm talking about!
