The Health Organisation has officially declared that the Delta variant of SARS-CoV-2 has been detected is now nearing 100 which indicates that this variant will become the dominant one in the coming months. WHO has also informed that the origin of this new variant was first found in India and now has been detected in 96 countries.

Sources said that the Delta variant is 55 per cent more transmissible than the Alpha variant, which was first detected in the UK, and now over 90 per cent of cases in the UK itself is of the Delta variant.

WHO has further informed “96 countries have reported cases of the Delta variant, though this is likely an underestimate as sequencing capacities needed to identify variants are limited. A number of these countries are attributing surges in infections and hospitalisations to this variant.” They further added, “Although the increased transmissibility of VOCs (Variants of Concern) means that measures may need to be maintained for longer periods of time, particularly in a context of low vaccination coverage, these measures must be targeted, time-bound, reinforced and supported by member states,”

WHO has further reported, among all the variants Delta has been identified as the most transmissible of the variants. The falling number of fresh Covid-19 cases in India is behind the decline of the global figure, the WHO noted, though the world body has registered a 12 cent rise in the number of cases being reported from India compared to the previous week.
