Coronavirus new strain, more infectious one found in UK the cases are linking the chain to South Africa

The new variant strain of Coronavirus that has caused the lockdown, the cases chain is linking to South Africa. The new strain might have come from South Africa.

New variants that may be highly contaminated with the coronavirus of the COVID-19 novel found in Britain have been linked to South Africa, British Health Secretary Matt Hancock said on Wednesday. The South African Department of Health said last week a new genetic mutation of the virus had been discovered and that may have contributed to the spread of the disease there.

"Because of the tremendous power of the South African people, we have found two cases of new strains of coronavirus here in the UK," Hancock told a news conference.The cases that were reported, among them two of them visited or came from South Africa.

Britain is already trying to curb the spread of the virus by up to 70% more, and studies are being done on this new species."This new model is very relevant, because it is still easily transferable, and it looks like it has changed a lot more than the new one found in the UK," he said. Close the contacts of those with new diversity and all those who have been in South Africa for the past two weeks, or who have been in close contact with someone who should have been isolated. People are being immediately barred from travel from South Africa the news confirmed.

Countries around the world have recently closed their borders for Britain and South Africa following the identification of new rapidly spreading strains of coronavirus. "So the new strain in the UK, which we have identified, are very different from the strain in South Africa, specifically they have gone through different mutations," said Susan Hopkins of Public Health England.

The strains are more transmissible that is confirmed for the UK strain but more research is needed in case of south African strain, there is more evidence of the UK strain and knowledge about the former. Susan reportedly informed the strain from South Africa is not that much diverse and could be controlled by the ongoing vaccines trials."We have no evidence yet that the vaccine will not work, so that actually means there is strong evidence that it will work, because the vaccine produces a strong immune response and is broad and works in many different ways of the virus," she said
