Russian expert: Coronavirus has become seasonal

Moscow - Ma'an - Dr. Vitaly Zverev, Scientific Director of the Serum and Vaccine Research Center, announced that the "Covid-19" disease no longer causes severe pneumonia as it did before. The expert points out that the currently circulating variants of the novel coronavirus are losing their potency and intensity, and the virus has begun to adapt to the human body and multiply in the upper respiratory tract without causing severe pneumonia, meaning that it does not descend into the lungs, and this is a natural process. According to him, no epidemic has ended with the death of all humans. The virus has acquired the ability to adapt to the human body and not kill it, because the death of the virus carrier does not allow the virus to spread further. For example, at the beginning of the twenty-first century, the SARS coronavirus spread, which caused severe acute respiratory syndrome, but it quickly ended because it was more deadly than the new coronavirus and could not adapt to the human body. He says: "I think there is no need to be afraid, because the virus has acquired a seasonal nature, similar to adenovirus, respiratory syncytial virus, rhinovirus and enterovirus, which recur every year." It is noteworthy that the Russian Consumer Protection Service announced that the strains of the new coronavirus KP.3 and LB.1 belonging to the FLiRT subline have the ability to bypass the immune system and infect the human body.
