The increase in the number of deaths from coronavirus will last until Christmas or the end of the year, estimated for the course of the pandemic in our country the doctor-professor in the USA, George Pavlakis speaking to SKAI.
The professor stressed that we may see 100 dead every day, until the holidays, while he noted that we can reach 20,000 or even about 21,000 dead in our country, by the end of the year. “We are no longer shocked by the death toll and that is the problem. “It has been almost accepted that nothing is running,” he added.
Regarding the spread of the Omicron variant, the professor said that we are dealing with a very contagious strain, while we are approximately at the level of the measles virus which is airborne.
At the same time, the professor pointed out that what the scientists said about the Delta mutation, is 2 or 3 times more true for Omicron. “Where there is a concentration of people, the virus will spread, even to those who have been vaccinated,” he added.
“In South Africa the cases are spreading and multiplying so far there have been no serious cases, however this is because we have cases at a young age,” he said, referring to the indications so far about the mutant strain.
In fact, regarding the booster dose, he stressed that a new vaccine adds to the level of antibodies, especially the 2nd and 3rd.
