The second wave of the new coronavirus pandemic will likely be more massive but less deadly than the first, says Russian virologist and professor Anatoli Altstein, in an interview published Wednesday by the Komsomólskaya Pravda newspaper . "According to the theory, over time the virus begins to adapt to the human population ... hence the second wave of Covid-19 is estimated to be more massive, but serious cases will decrease," said the scientist. On the other hand, he stressed that the fatality of the disease in Russia "is not high", between 1.5 and 2% and ventured that this figure will continue to decrease. In his opinion, the so-called "herd immunity" could be achieved only in 2021, especially if the vaccines currently being developed are effective and applied on a large scale.
