News agency ANI has reported that India has registered a total of 40 cases of coronavirus disease due to the Delta Plus variant till Wednesday. Some government sources said that, “India reports 40 cases of the Delta Plus variant of the novel coronavirus. Most of the cases are from Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh, Kerala and Tamil Nadu. It is still a variant of interest,” Till yesterday the total number was 22.

Yesterday, the Union ministry of health and family welfare (MoHFW) declared that the ministry cited an analysis by a consortium of genomic sequencing labs that purportedly found the mutated virus to spread more readily. Earlier that day, addressing a press conference, Union health secretary Rajesh Bhushan had called Delta Plus a “variant of interest” (VoI), which denotes that the variant is being studied.

The ministry further alerted three states Maharashtra, Kerala and Madhya Pradesh. Chief secretaries have thus been advised to take up immediate containment measures in various districts and clusters,” the statement said.

A leading daily has quoted that, “Delta Plus is a mutation of the Delta Covid-19 variant, or the B1.617.2 strain, which was first detected in India. Scientifically, Delta Plus is denoted as AY.1 variant, and, in the study cited by MoHFW statement, was found to affect the lungs “more strongly” and possibly reduce the ability of antibodies to neutralise it.”  However, another variant has detected at Kappa, which is denoted as B1.617.1 strain.
