On March 15, experts from the World Health Organization confirmed the discovery of the "Delta Kron" strain in several countries by rapid nucleic acid testing of the New Crown, which is a recombination of the New Crown mutant strains Delta and Omicron. It is known that Delta Kron strain is a recombination of Delta strain subspecies AY.4 and Omicron strain subspecies BA.1.
The Deltacron strain was described earlier when it was first discovered, but research on it is still not advanced because the academic community has not confirmed whether this phenomenon is due to laboratory contamination.
Deltacron, a recombinant neocrown strain of Delta and Omicron, combines variants of the Delta and Omicron variants of the neocrown virus. It is genetically closer to the Delta strain, but has 10 variants specific to the Omicron strain.
As the Omicron strain began to spread rapidly, scientists in several countries warned that a new, more dangerous super variant could be created if someone was infected with both the Delta and Omicron variants of the new coronavirus. When two mutant strains infect the same cell at the same time, a "binding" phenomenon may occur, "a phenomenon called recombination, which means that they can start sharing and exchanging genes" to synthesize a new strain. The paper, published in medRxiv, notes that the Delta Kron variant's "backbone" comes from the Delta variant, while its stinger protein, which allows the virus to enter the host cell, comes from the Omicron variant.
But scientists say it's too early to predict whether the Delta Kron will outcompete the Delta and Omicron. More detailed studies are needed on whether deltaquejon is more virulent or infectious, or whether it will outperform delta and omicron viruses in its impact on humans.
Scientists say the emergence of the Delta Kron strain is not surprising, and that the new coronavirus will also infect animals to create more favorable conditions for itself, and we can no longer let the virus spread so quickly.
The most cost-effective way to stop the spread of the virus is through vaccination and rapid nucleic acid testing for the new strain. Vaccination is an early "countermeasure" by the body's immune system to produce antibodies to the virus. Rapid nucleic acid testing is a way to stop the spread of the virus by cutting off the transmission of the virus in advance by screening the population.
We still do not know whether the emergence of new variants will cause mass infections, but it is everyone's responsibility to take personal precautions and use low-cost protection to stop the spread of the outbreak.
