"If someone was not clear that this was not finished, now I come to tell you: this is not finished. The incidence is skyrocketing and I am currently quarantining for

Covid-19,

" said the respected immunologist awarded by the CSIC

Alfredo Corell

after announcing that he had caught the coronavirus.

In a video posted on his Instagram account, Corell explained that he has symptoms, although "they are mild", and warns that he has been infected

despite having scrupulously complied with all

protection

measures

against the coronavirus.

"The contagion has most likely occurred

in a meal in the open air

. In the open air. That is, this variant that is entering is much more contagious," he says.

Corell

also explains that the symptoms are "mild" since he is vaccinated with the full schedule, that is, with the two doses of the vaccine.

"I have the same symptoms, more or less, as a cold. So it means that

vaccines work a

lot and protect us from serious infections and disease," he says and emphasizes that they are not infallible and that is why patients continue to be admitted to hospitals with coronavirus.

"

There is so much transmission that we are going to see vaccinated people enter

the hospital, because they do not protect 100%," he says in the video.

He also emphasizes that a few weeks ago in

La Sexta Noche he

explained how people already vaccinated could get infected and that he is now one of those people: "Apparently I have not infected anyone, but

neither has the tracking been done properly

because with this level of incidence the tracking would need a quantity of personnel that we do not have in the health systems ".

"We have to continue vaccinating until we have 90% of the population vaccinated or immunized and we have to control social contacts between the unvaccinated or not immunized. Vaccines are very effective against serious disease, but they are not infallible. Only by minimizing contact and maintaining precautions we will be able to put an end to this at once and try to return to normality as completely as possible, "he says.
