The Covid-19 mutated virus, which has been identified for the first time in the United Kingdom and has since been found in two US states over the last week, seems to be easier to catch, saidDr. Anthony Fauci, the main infectious infectious expert of the nation, Wednesday."It seems fairly clear" British research "that" the transmissibility of this mutant is more effective than the transmissibility of the standard virus that we have treated so far, "said Fuci in an interview with California Gov. Gavin Newsom. ", Namely, it is able to bind to the receptors on the cells, and it is better transmitted."

But the mutation does not seem to change the fundamental principles of viruses. "There is no indication at all that it increases virulence and virulence, I mean, the ability to make you sick or kill you," said Fuci.

"The overwhelming majority of mutations are not relevant," he explained. "They have no impact on an important function of the virus. From time to time, you get a mutation that affects a function of the virus. It appears ... this particular mutation makes the virus to be transmitted from one person to another. "
