Reporter Yoon Jeong-sik’s’Today’s Formula’
The topic to be officially addressed today (28th) is ‘Fear of mutant virus.’
The coming has come.
The mutant corona 19 virus, which is prevalent in the UK, has also entered Korea.
It was confirmed that three family members who came into London on the 22nd while staying in London, UK, contracted the virus.
Besides these, other family members who arrived from England on the 8th and 13th are also uneasy.
There are four, of which one male in his 80s was confirmed after death on the 26th.
The remaining three members of the family are also currently confirmed, but we are confirming whether they have a mutation.
This mutant virus is spreading all over the world.
Not to mention the UK and other European countries.
It spread to Japan, Hong Kong and other Asian countries, Australia, Israel and Lebanon in the Middle East.
In addition to this, South Africa and Nigeria have identified other mutant viruses.
Today, there are 808 confirmed cases in Korea.
They say the spread is somewhat slowing down.
Perhaps because of this mutation, civic anxiety is even greater.
What is scary about this virus is its spreading power.
It is about 70% stronger than the existing Corona 19 virus.
With this level of propagation, we can neutralize the quarantine network that we made difficult.
So will the vaccine stop the mutant virus?
Most countries in Europe started vaccination over the weekend, starting with the UK and the US.
First of all, manufacturers say it is possible.
If this doesn’t work, the virus has transformed while we developed the vaccine.
You have to trust the manufacturer.
The remaining problem is children.
The existing Corona 19 virus has spread to adults rather than children.
The mutant virus is also infecting children indiscriminately.
Moreover, children are not currently eligible for the developed vaccine.
If the mutant virus is not caught in time, children around the world will be completely defenseless.
Now, the problem of mutation is not for some, such as the UK.
It is time to check our quarantine network more thoroughly from the start.
