Stop terrifying with variations. Roberto Burioni’s post
Virologist Roberto Burioni writes: “The new fashion is“ to terrorize with the variant ”. I would like to point out that viral variants emerge continuously and, until proven otherwise, do not represent a danger ”.
Enough to terrorize citizens with the variants of the virus in the media.
This is what virologist Roberto Burioni basically says without mincing words.
Here is what Burioni wrote exactly.
HERE IS ROBERTO BURIONI'S POST ON THE VARIATIONS
“The new fashion is“ to terrify with the variant ”. I would like to point out that viral variants emerge continuously and, until proven otherwise, do not pose a danger. The same applies to the variants as to the citizens: innocent until proven otherwise ”. The virologist Roberto Burioni wrote it on his Facebook page " Medical Facts ".
THE VARIATIONS AND VACCINES
For the scientist, “there is no element that makes us think that those already identified escape the action of the most powerful vaccines, indeed preliminary data seem to suggest the opposite, even if then of course we will have to see what actually happens. For example, in Israel the 'English' variant – writes the virologist on the Facebook page – is impeccably countered by the vaccine ”.
THE CONCLUSION OF BURIONI
“The future cannot be predicted, but it is not certain that a vaccine resistant variant will appear, just think of measles which has a replication mechanism of its RNA genome much more inaccurate than the coronavirus and this introduces more mutations of the coronavirus. The measles vaccine was developed in the 1960s and is still as effective as the first day. Calm and vaccines, especially many vaccines. If they are there, let's administer them, if they aren't there, let's produce them, if we're late – concludes the virologist Burioni – let's not waste any more time. Let's vaccinate! ".
