The new variant is

64% more transmissible than the British one

Masks, user manual (or not) in the EU

While in Spain it is debated how, when and how, the rest of the European countries take the first steps to

get rid

of

masks in open spaces

. Here they are mandatory in public spaces, indoors and outdoors and in transport, except for children under 6 years of age and people with certain disabilities or respiratory diseases. And if we compare ourselves from the epidemiological point of view, not all of them have fewer cases than Spain, which yesterday recorded a cumulative incidence at 14 days of 96.64 cases per 100,000 inhabitants.

Little by little Europe is reaping the fruits of vaccination, which also acts as a brake against the virus.

one in three citizens of the old continent is already immunized and this supposes a push towards the liberalization of measures with the arrival of good weather.

Less cough and more runny nose: these are the symptoms of the Delta variant of the coronavirus

The Delta variant of the

coronavirus

, first identified in India and already prevalent in the UK, causes different symptoms than previous versions of the

virus

, said Tim Spector, professor of genetic epidemiology at King's College London.

The Delta version causes

more mucus and a sore throat

, but less coughing and loss of smell, says the expert, who leads a study whose findings have not yet been published in a scientific journal or peer reviewed.

The new variant is

64% more transmissible

than the British one (Alpha), according to the public health agency Public Health England (PHE) and

already represents more than 90% of infections in the United Kingdom

, where daily cases have skyrocketed in the last weeks and have reached 11,007 today, the highest number since February 19.

From the data collected, the new manifestations of this variant are: headache, sore throat, runny nose, fever and, lastly, cough.

He has also discovered, thanks to citizen participation in his project, that the loss of smell caused by other variations of the virus does not appear among the ten most common symptoms with Delta.

They discover a new combination of drugs to deal with coronavirus infection

A new therapeutic approach to dealing with

coronavirus

focuses on the body's cellular response to the virus, rather than fighting it directly, thereby reducing the spread of infection by 99 in laboratory cells. ,5%.

This new strategy contemplates the combination of two drugs that, if considered safe for use in people, would not prevent infection, but the symptoms would be much milder and would accelerate recovery, indicates a study signed by a team from the University of Cambridge , directed by the Spanish Nerea Irigoyen.

Current approaches to treating the infection target the virus itself with antiviral drugs, while this focuses on repairing cell damage and is effective in laboratory models.

The virus that causes

Covid-19

triggers a response in our cells, and the team discovered that all three branches of a signaling pathway called the "unfolded protein response" (UPR) are activated in cultured cells. in laboratory infected by

SARS-CoV-2

.

In addition, it found that the inhibition of UPR to restore normal cell function through drugs significantly reduced the replication of the virus, according to the study published by Plos Pathogens.
