Immunologist, general director of the KEG contract research company, candidate of medical sciences Nikolai Kryuchkov said in a conversation with URA.RU "omicron" the dominant variant of the coronavirus could once again become "delta".

“Now we clearly see that Omicron and some Super-Omicron, that is, sublines BA.2, BA.3, and so on, are just one branch, and the more citizens get infected, the more immunity is developed. to this mutation. And at some point, the descendants of, for example, "Delta", preserved in small numbers in the population, as well as in animals, will feel that their time has come. Since in many respects this hidden line will be stronger than Omicron, and we will have a change in the dominant strain, ”he said.

The specialist noted that owners of hybrid immunity will be best protected from the new variety of "delta". We are talking about people who have been ill, vaccinated and revaccinated.

Previously Director of the Center Gamalei Alexander Gintsburg said that the immunity of a person who has had a coronavirus infection does not have good protection against new strains, which is provided only by vaccination and revaccination.
