The Delta7 variant8 of the COVID-19 virus is more infectious and more virulence9 than the Alpha variant first identified in the United Kingdom. This is according to new research. The good news is the vaccines10 still work against it though somewhat less well. The Delta variant was first identified in India. It's likely responsible for that country's exclusive outbreak, which has set grim world records for the most deaths per day of any country. When it spread to the UK, it overtook the fast spreading Alpha variant in a matter of weeks. The Delta now causes 90 percent of new infections in the UK. The variant also causes more serious cases of COVID-19 in a study published Monday in The Lancet medical journal. Scientists found the patients infected with Delta for 85 percent more likely to be hospitalized than they would have been if infected with Alpha.

新冠病毒的Delta变种比在英国首次发现的Alpha变种更具传染性和毒性。这是根据最新研究得出的结论。好消息是,尽管疫苗的效果稍差,但仍能起到预防作用。Delta变种最早是在印度发现的。它可能是印度疫情不同于其他国家的罪魁祸首,它创下了所有国家中单日死亡人数最多的严酷世界纪录。当它传播到英国时,它在几周内就超过了快速传播的Alpha变种。Delta变种现在造成了英国90%的新增感染病例。周一发表在《柳叶刀》医学杂志上的一项研究表明,这种变异还会引发病情更重的新冠病例。科学家发现,感染Delta的患者住院的可能性比感染Alpha的患者高出85%。
