According to Professor of Systems Biology at George Mason University, Anchi Baranova, the “British” strain of Coronavirus may become the main virus strain in Russia. According to her, infection with this virus is 56% more than the previously discovered strain.
The system of polymerase chain reaction tests developed by the “Vector” center of “Ross Trip Nadzor” was able to detect infection with the “British” strain, as the system can distinguish the difference between the altered virus and the non-mutated forms.
