>Scientists are still understanding the information about the new omicron variant (BA.4, BA.5). BA.5 detected in South Africa currently has a 84% growth advantage against BA.2. BA.4 detected in South Africa currently has a 63% growth advantage over BA.2. Both BA.4 and BA.5 have the L452R pathogenic mutation, which is also found in the Delta variant. Since these variants are now already dominant in South Africa, it is unclear what this means for the rest of the world, as we are already experiencing much bigger BA.2 waves than they did – but scientists will be keeping an eye on this especially as cases begin to develop in the UK.
Mit BA 1 und BA 2 ist die Welt halt so langsam auch durchseucht. Kein Wunder, dass dann eine Untervariante die Oberhand gewinnt.
