How will the pandemic continue to develop? Vaccinate or not? How dangerous are the new mutations? Questions about COVID-19 keep multiplying, not disappearing. Doubts related to the coronavirus were tried to be dispelled in “Kropka nad i” on TVN24 by professor Krzysztof Simon from the Medical University in Wrocław. – If we do not vaccinate the majority of the population, we will not be able to cope with this epidemic. It will come back – he emphasized.
Prof. Simon said that variants of the virus change, but fortunately they are not more pathogenic, but more contagiouswhich makes it easier to transfer. – The fact that they have a limited possibility (to move – ed.), Because a lot of people got sick of it and got vaccinated a lot. There is also a small group that will never get sick because they are resistant to infection – he said in “Kropka nad i”.

He noted that the goal is to save as many people as possible and there should not be any convictions or political affiliation. – Nobody has the right to put anyone to death – noted the doctor.
The Delta variant is causing more and more concern. Prof. Simon commented that this combination of mutations was more contagious than the original one. – In general, we have a different virus than the one that came out of Wuhan. He is changing – he explained.

– There are 195 countries, in a moment you will have 195 mutations or more. These are mRNA viruses, they mutate immanently (…), they try to find their place somewhere to infect someone in order to survive – he explained and added: – In a moment we will have ypsilon, gamma and so on. These are viruses that inevitably evolve. The virus becomes more contagious because there are fewer people to be infected.
The professor also talked about the idea of introducing compulsory vaccinations. In his opinion, there are groups “that he would really consider”. He meant people over 80, health workers and teachers.
