COVID-19 mutant found in Guangdong. What is its communication ability? What protection do locals need to do?

Ever since we learned that COVID-19 virus had mutated in Britain, we have all been in a panic. However, this time, a mutant strain of COVID-19's disease was found in Guangdong. This time, the case of COVID-19 virus mutation was brought to China by a student who came back from studying in Britain.

What is a genetic mutation? A gene refers to a DNA fragment with genetic effect, and a gene mutation refers to a protein mutation in synthetic translation caused by the change of the nucleotide sequence that constitutes a gene. This time, COVID-19 virus is RNA virus, and RNA virus will form DNA during reverse transcription. Then, this part of DNA double-stranded is unbound into two independent DNA sequences, which are synthesized into mRNA under the action of enzymes, and then combined with ribosomes to synthesize protein.

In the process of virus gene replication, it is often because of the change of nucleotide sequence that the virus mutates. At present, we can't know the genetic effects of mutated viruses in detail. However, we can know from the official news of experts that we should always pay attention to the spreading power and potential period of this COVID-19 mutation.

According to the news of Guangzhou CDC, this virus has stronger spreading ability, but its power is basically the same as that of ordinary COVID-19. In other words, vaccines and diagnostic reagents have been developed before, and they are still effective for the spread of this variant, so there is no need to panic. It should be noted that you should obey the arrangement of the local government. Although you can't go to the front line, you can also control your own behavior to curb the spread of the virus. Protect others and protect yourself.

Unity is strength, and the cold weather in winter is very unfavorable to the epidemic situation in COVID-19. In cold weather, COVID-19 virus can survive for many days, so we should pay attention to protect ourselves in our daily travel. In particular, it is necessary to reduce crowd gathering and wear masks when there are many people. At the same time, isolation measures should be taken at home, and public chopsticks should be used between family members. At the same time, we can't ignore the requirements of physical exercise at home, and use healthy and nutritious vegetables to improve our physical fitness. If you find that you are unwell and have symptoms such as cough and chest tightness, you should actively go to the hospital for examination. Cooperate with relevant epidemic prevention departments for nucleic acid detection or temperature measurement. ?

Now more and more people are isolated at home because of the COVID-19 epidemic, so we ordinary people can't be impetuous when we are isolated. In order to protect us, many medical workers fight against COVID-19's disease. The only thing we can do at this time is to stay at home quietly, don't go out and don't gather people. Fighting the epidemic requires all of us to unite. I believe that with our joint efforts, we can overcome the difficulties brought by the COVID-19 epidemic and move towards a better future.

There is no winter that can't pass, and there is no spring that can't come. Let's cheer together.
