This is bad news, Singapore study shows: mutated virus is worse than thought
Singapore study shows mutated virus is worse than thought
With the outbreak of the mutated virus, countries around the world have once again conducted analysis of the new crown, and according to the latest results, the mutated virus outbreak in India is worse than expected. According to the external report of "World Wide Web", Professor Liang Yuxin, director of infectious diseases in Singapore, announced the latest research results on the mutant virus. The research shows that the mutant virus has more residues in the human respiratory tract due to its special genetic structure. The time is also longer, which is not good news for all countries in the world, because it means that the mutated virus will have more destructive power on the human body and the attributes of easier transmission.
Professor Liang Yuxin said in her research that the samples she selected this time are the source of virus infection that appeared in Singapore recently, and these virus strains are closely related to the B16172 variant virus first discovered in India. In Professor Liang Yuxin's view, just from the perspective of the virus, the mutant virus that broke out in India is very accidental, because its virus strain is very rare even in other countries, and there is not much evidence to show that the B16172 mutant virus is a It is more like an inevitable product of the virus survival law. When a large number of strains gather on the same medium, the most infectious one will become the dominant of all viruses.
But in this way, the destructive power of the mutated virus is bound to be more obvious than the previous new coronavirus, and under the research of the National Center for Infectious Diseases in Singapore, it was found that the mutated virus will stay in the human respiratory tract infection for a longer time, that is to say , those infected with the mutated virus will be contagious for a longer period of time.
After all, whether we speak or breathe, we have to go through the respiratory tract, and the latent mutant virus in it can easily spread from our mouth and nose into the air, and then infect others. Judging from the scale of infection of the mutated virus in India in the past two months, we know that this research result is definitely not alarmist.
But fortunately, compared with the outbreak of the new crown epidemic last year, all countries in the world have more systematic epidemic prevention plans and sufficient material reserves. More importantly, most countries have now developed new crown vaccines that can effectively suppress the epidemic. , which makes the mutant virus outbreak very limited.
Professor Liang Yuxin said that although mutated viruses have higher infectivity and destructive power, this does not mean that we have nothing to do with mutated viruses. In addition to the new crown vaccine, we can also effectively prevent the infection of the mutant virus through daily epidemic prevention measures, such as frequent hand washing, less gatherings, and wearing masks when going out. The mutated virus is indeed scary, but we are also confident that it will be completely killed in the growing period to avoid another disaster.

4. 5 unsolved secrets of the world
For many decades, residents of the city of Taos in the USA have been hearing an unusual hum, the so-called Taos hum or Taos noise. This is an anomalous sound phenomenon in nature. The hum is similar to the movement of heavy equipment on the road, but there are no big roads in Taos. It is also strange that not all residents hear this noise, only about 2%, and visitors don’t hear it at all. Scientists tried to find out where the source of the incomprehensible hum was. However, they found nothing and referred to the power line. What kind of sounds they were and where they came from was unclear, and to this day the Taos hum remains not only unexplained but is also included in the Ten Unexplained Phenomena of the program "Unsolved Mysteries. On November 24, 1971, a Boeing 727 airliner was hijacked en route to Portland. A passenger named Dan Cooper sat in his seat 18C in Portland and, 8 minutes after takeoff, passed a note to the flight attendant. The note said that Cooper had a bomb in his briefcase and that the plane had been hijacked. The air pirate's demands were four parachutes and $200,000 in twenty-dollar bills. The flight attendant was shown a bomb, and it was decided to cooperate with Mr. Cooper. At 17:24 the plane landed in Portland. Cooper prudently asked to turn off the lights on the plane to prevent snipers from seeing him. The government satisfied the demands of the invader, and Cooper himself released the hostages except for one flight attendant, the board mechanic, and the pilots. At 19:40 the plane took off in the direction of Washington. After a while, Cooper sent the flight attendant to the cockpit and ordered her to remain there. At about 2:13 DB Cooper jumped from the plane. However, two more parachutes remained on the plane. Did the robber manage to land? What happened to him and where the money went did not become clear. In the 1980s, $6,000 from the series that were given to Cooper were identified. However, the fate of the rest of the money is unknown. Just as unknown is the fate of criminal 45 years after the hijacking, the FBI suspended the investigation of this case. To this day, DB Cooper is one of the most mystical figures of the last century. Ronga ronga or Koha rongo rongo - these are wooden tablets with the inscriptions of the inhabitants of Easter Island. The tablets were discovered in 1864 by the bishop Eiro. Shortly before this, many residents of Easter Island, including those capable of deciphering Koha o Rongo Rongo, were taken as slaves to Chile. In 1866, most of the tablets were destroyed, and only 25 of them have survived to this day. Deciphering this writing is almost impossible, and those capable of reading these signs are no longer left. Small amount of text, lack of context, and the mix of languages of the inhabitants of Easter Island - these are the main problems in deciphering the inscriptions. Many scientists have tried and are still trying to understand what is written on the wooden tablets. However, what is certain is that some of the information is related to the lunar calendar. So ronga ronga is another unsolved mystery of Easter Island along with statues. What if statues and tablets are somehow connected?
