Is the new Covid-19 variant getting around the vaccine. Take a look at how this variant is spreading...
'NEW DELHI ? At Sir Ganga Ram Hospital, a huge facility in the middle of India?s capital, 37 fully vaccinated doctors came down with Covid-19 earlier this month.
The infections left most with mild symptoms, but it added to their growing fears that the virus behind India?s catastrophic second wave is different. They wonder if a more contagious variant that dodges the immune system could be fueling the epidemic inside the world?s hardest-hit nation.".. India Blames a Virus Variant as Its Covid-19 Crisis Deepens
"As the country opened up, more transmissible, harder-to-beat variants took hold in India. Sequencing of COVID-19 testing data shows multiple variants, including B.1.1.7 and B.1617, are infecting a growing number of people. Over the last month, new infections have soared across the nation; variants are likely contributing to the surge, though a lack of testing makes their prevalence unclear. Test positivity rates are at 18 percent, and confirmed infection rates could be vastly under-representative, Jameel said."... https://www.pbs.org/newshour/health...st-vaccines-are-made-how-did-that-happen
