We move away from the restrictions, we say goodbye to the masks. However, the pandemic continues, COVID-19 is among us and we still have to take into account that another dangerous variant of the coronavirus will appear. How big is this risk? On the Bloomberg TV station, Moderny CEO Stéphane Bancel made it clear. The forecast for spring 2022, shared in November by the immunologist Dr. Mark Dybul, is even more worrying.

  1. According to Moderna’s CEO, the probability that SARS-CoV-2 will create new more dangerous than the current mutations is about one in five
  2. «We should be very careful because there are 20 percent. the chance that something very virulent will happen in some of the new variants »- he said on Bloomberg TV
  3. In November, immunologist Dr. Mark Dybul predicted that “by March, April, May we will have a fully vaccine-proof variant.” “I hope I’m wrong this time,” he said

A new more dangerous variant of the coronavirus? “We should be very careful”

Sub-variant BA.2 of the Omicron is spreading more and more around the world. According to WHO observations, it is more infectious than its original version – BA.1, but most likely does not cause more severe cases of COVID-19. However, this is not reassuring information. There are fears that new mutations of the coronavirus will appear “with greater power to infect and course of infection”.

  1. WHO: restrictions in European countries were lifted too quickly

On Bloomberg TV, the CEO of Moderna, biotechnologist Stéphane Bancel, spoke about this topic. In his opinion, the probability that SARS-CoV-2 will create new mutations that are more dangerous than the current ones is about one in five. In his opinion, the more likely scenario is that vulnerable people (seniors, immunocompromised people) will need annual booster doses to protect against strains similar to Omicron virulence.

«I think there are 80 percent. the chances that the variants we see in the future will be manageable in terms of severity and production of vaccines, “said Bancel. On the other hand, he stressed: “But I also think that we should always be very careful, because there are 20% of them. the chance that something very virulent will happen in some of the new variants ».

“The good news is that advances in therapy, vaccines and the biotech sector are likely to help the world avoid a repeat of the catastrophes of 2020 and 2021. The bad news is that we will likely see a vaccine-resistant strain of coronavirus in the spring of 2022” Then wrote Fortune.

Dr. Dybul himself said: “I hope I am wrong this time, but I think that by March, April, May we will have a vaccine-proof variant.” The expert pointed to the low global vaccination rate (the primary vaccination cycle is behind 57% of the world’s population – edited by ourworldindata.org) and a kind of “viral ping-pong” between vaccinated and unvaccinated people. «I am an immunologist. The probability that we will see a vaccine-resistant strain is very high »assessed Mark Dybul.
