By now, the vaccines have been completed, which in turn raises not only hope, but again many questions, while not only stopping the virus, but threatening another mutation as well.

while for a mutation, this number can reach 13-14.

The data was examined by researchers from the British Government Advisory Board (NERVTAG), noting that the theory has yet to be proven.
