Dr. Simidchiev: This “new mutated virus” was found in Bulgaria in April – Diseases

“In Bulgaria, this ‘new mutated virus’ was identified in April. This virus was found in the National AIDS Laboratory, which sequenced several virus strains in April by Bulgarian authors. The virus is currently spreading in England. Often they sequence viruses and can track any changes in the virus … The question is whether this virus has jumped from Europe to the UK, or can it come back to Europe. This was said on the “12 + 4” program at BNR by pulmonologist Dr. Alexander Simidchiev.

He explained that coronaviruses are variable and, very often, some of their genetic information changes. He also highlighted that this mutation is also present in South Africa.

The new coronavirus mutation is more likely to infect children

“The virus is looking for a way to regain its advantage … Uncertainty always leads to overreaction or lack of response. Reasonable sufficiency is a characteristic of the scientific approach.”

“The new virus must be significantly different to need a new vaccine, and it is not … The more the virus multiplies in the population, the greater the probability that it will mutate. That is why its distribution must be limited, ”explained Dr. Simidchiev.

The pulmonologist pointed out as a deficiency the inadequate national vaccination information campaign, through which people can obtain the information they need and be calm in deciding whether to get vaccinated.
