“Delta +” mutation / 11 cases detected in Greece
Until now, these cases had been categorized into the “Delta” mutation, however, according to the new scientific data, they belong to the “Delta +”
Eleven cases of her coronavirus “Delta +” mutation were located in Hellas after re-evaluation of samples previously taken.
Specifically, such as ΕΟΔΥ the National Genomic Surveillance Network located 11 samples which with the previous data are classified as strain ΑΥ.4 (belonging to Delta executive), most with the current revision are classified as strain ΑΥ.4.2, otherwise and “Delta +”The
At the same time, with the announcement of EODY, it announced that 3 samples which were classified as strain B.1.623, are now classified as strain Mu (B.1.621.1).
It is noted that the National Genomic Surveillance Network of SARS-CoV-2 virus, after genomic analysis in 381 samples that have been randomly selected or targeted and in the period September 13 to October 9, emerged 364 samples with executives of special interest and all elements in the stem “Delta”The
Finally, according to today’s report of EODY, since the launch of the National Network of Genomic Operation of the SARS-CoV-2 virus until today, a total of 34,496 samples of domestic cases have been tested in the territory.
Of these, 30,447 come from random sampling, 3,308 come from targeted sampling or sampling and for 741 samples are not available in selection mode.
Among the 30,447 randomly selected samples in the territory, the four most frequently targeted or monitored strains isolated “Alpha”, with a percentage of 51.12%, followed by “Delta” with a percentage of 33.02%, B.1.1.318 (Variant E484K) with a percentage of 7.70%, and “Beta” with a percentage of 1.09%.
