Dear MEL Topic Readers,
Covid: The race against the variants
More than a billion Covid-19 vaccines have gone into arms around the world. As more people are vaccinated, some countries have started easing the coronavirus restrictions, such as lockdowns, social gatherings, restaurants, and even face masks. But as worldwide variant cases increase, the first generation of vaccines might become ineffective if enough people are vaccinated. As viruses aren’t bothered by national borders, vaccination shouldn’t be limited only to countries that can afford and prepared. In fact, the UK variants and B.1.617 have been on the rise. And India has been seeing a skyrocketing number of cases since the religious ceremonies and political rallies for elections, marking over 400,000 new cases a day. As the more contagious and deadly variants spread from India, many countries have suspended entries from India. But that won’t stop the virus from spreading as the world is more connected than ever before. Indeed, vaccination and strict lockdown surely reduce the number of new cases but if lockdown is eased too prematurely, more people still get infected. It seems that the world is entering a complicated stage of the pandemic. While vaccination rates vary by country, region, and generation, coronavirus has no such borders, just like climate change.
Enjoy watching the video and learn about the next stage of the fight against the novel virus and its variants.
