Fuchi: The new Corona strain that appeared in South Africa is “alarming”

Dubai – (East):
Anthony Fauci, president of the American Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases, said that vaccines against the Corona virus can be modified to match the mutations and new strains of the virus, stressing in a press conference, Thursday at the White House, that this “will not be costly.”

Fauchi, who oversaw the Biden administration’s strategic plan to confront the Corona virus, said that the new strain of Corona virus that appeared in Britain has twice the speed of the original virus outbreak, adding, “It does not appear so far that the strain that appeared in South Africa has spread to the United States.” “This strain is a slight concern.”

Fauci confirmed, in a press conference at the White House, Thursday, that he “still believes that most Americans will be vaccinated against the virus by mid-2021,” noting that he is concerned “for those reluctant to receive the vaccine,” and continued, “if he is vaccinated. 70 to 80% of Americans by the summer the country will see some kind of return to normal in the fall. “
