Super Corona spreads terror in Brazil

There was a panic in Brazil caused by the new strain of Corona virus in its Brazilian version, or what was called "Super Corona" in the media, because it does not respond to vaccines, and because it is 3 times more contagious than the original strain of Covid-19.

In the wake of the two new strains in Britain and South Africa, the Corona virus mutated again, this time turning into a more alarming version of the virus in Brazil.

The new strain was named "Amazon", where it was discovered and believed to be resistant to some vaccines, but Brazil did not provide more information about it.

And the new strain of Corona virus was discovered last January in 4 people who entered Japan from Brazil, and these people came from the Amazon region.

A research report indicates that the new strain is already responsible for 90% of cases of Corona virus in the state of Amazonas, and the new strain was also detected in other parts of Brazil and spread to other countries around the world.

There are two different types carried by the Brazilian strain. The first type, P1, is difficult for the immune system to get rid of because of its genetic makeup responsible for building spinal proteins, which act like grasping tools to reach human cells.

Any changes in their design could make it easier for them to attach to human cells.

The second type is known as P2 and carries a mutation that can bypass antibodies.

The danger of the two types lies in the spinal protein, as most Corona vaccines target the spinal protein that the virus uses to adhere to human cells, while the vaccines work to prepare the body to be able to detect the spinal protein, so that the immune system can detect the virus.

If the spinal protein mutates, the body will not be able to recognize the virus, and then the vaccines will not be effective ... and herein lies the danger!
