According to the "Hindu Daily" website reported on May 6, the Indian government announced on Wednesday local time that India had found a total of 3,532 worrisome new coronavirus variants in 27 states , adding that , given the current surge in infections, a third wave is inevitable. The researchers found that the British mutant virus (B.1.1.7) was decreasing in infectivity in India, while the double mutant mutant virus (B.1.617) was increasing.

We are now very worried about whether new strains will be produced with the large-scale transmission and spread. Because of the outbreak in India, we can see that the new crown pneumonia virus is very, very cunning, very smart, it Knowing how to adapt to the environment, how to deal with people, is a big problem."
