This new variant has become the major global attention, because of the possibility that it is playing a role in the second wave of the virus in India.

This new variant is still not solely considered as the main reason for the second wave. But the scientists believe that this might be the primary reason at least in the Vidarbha region. WHO has declared that this new strain has been founded in at least 17 countries including the US, UK, and Singapore.

 

In the last few days, several countries have put a restriction on Indian travellers in the fear of the virus spread. In the recent interview of Anthony Fauci, one of the most known influential infectious disease experts said that Indians should make a sample of these variants available to the US, UK, and other countries for further analyses.

The UK has also decided to send their sample of the variant found in their population for vaccination testing in India. Taking into consideration all the norms and the rules of the international biodiversity exchange, a further process will be done.

According to the study of India both the vaccine is effective to this new variant. But it has not been tested against the other vaccines such as Pfizer or Moderna because of their unavailability in India.
