There have been cases of simultaneous infection with the mutant Corona 19 virus. The fear of mutant Corona 19 is expected to spread.
Researchers at Pivalet University in southern Brazil studied two patients in their thirties with Corona 19 and found that they were simultaneously infected with two mutant viruses originating in South Africa and Brazil, foreign media such as Reuters and Fox News reported on the 2nd. .

According to the researchers, the first patient had symptoms of dry cough, and the second patient had symptoms such as cough, sore throat, and headache. Both were not severely symptomatic and were cured without inpatient treatment.
The results of the study were recently published on medRxiv, a pre-publication site for medical papers. The papers were compiled before the site was verified. This means that it has not yet been verified whether the thesis content is true or not. If the paper is recognized as true, it will be the world’s first case of simultaneous infection with two mutations.
In this regard, the researchers warned that the coexistence of the two mutant viruses in one patient’s body could speed up the production of another mutant virus. Simultaneous infection induces a combination of variants, resulting in the creation of new mutant viruses at a faster rate than before. Simultaneous infection of the mutant virus promotes the evolution of the virus.
Meanwhile, it is known that mutant viruses found in South Africa, etc. have stronger infectious power and vaccine resistance than existing viruses.
