New Delhi: Cases of corona infection are again seen rising all over the world. The biggest reason for the just released wave is being attributed to the new Omicron variants of the corona. These variants were first found in South Africa. A record number of infection cases are being registered in countries like US, France and UK due to this variant. The number of new cases in India is also increasing rapidly and this is at a time when the emphasis is being laid on vaccination of more and more people around the world, including India.
A large population has also been vaccinated, but there are still cases where people who include both doses of the vaccine are also getting infections. So, don't the vaccines that exist now affect the Omicron? In December last year, India's Health Minister Mansukh Mandaviya said in the Upper House of Parliament that there was "no evidence to prove that the existing vaccine does not affect Omicron variants," says Brazilian infectious disease specialist Dr Renato Kafori, who has come up with the first round of corona vaccines, Their aim is to reduce the serious risks of the disease at the moment, lest the infection causes hospitalisation or risk sins.
Dr Kafori, director of the Brazilian Society of Immunization, says, 'The vaccine provides more protection in serious cases than in cases of corona with common symptoms, mild symptoms, or without symptoms.' This means that the main purpose of the vaccine is not to prevent infections but to reduce the damage caused by an infection in the body. Flu-preventing vaccines do similar things that have been in use for decades. In many countries, people take this vaccine every year. This vaccine does not prevent infection, but it helps in reducing the severity of infection in children, pregnant women, senior citizens, or people suffering from some disease.
