CLEAN : Scientist breaks down South African Covid variant (Zoom interview)

The video discusses the unprecedented growth of a virus, particularly in South Africa, indicating increased transmissibility. It explores the evolution of new variants, possibly originating from immunocompromised patients in the UK and South Africa. The video highlights the virus's ability to evolve and spread in uncontrolled environments, stressing the importance of reducing transmission and vaccinating people to prevent further evolution and control the spread of these variants.

What is the significance of immunocompromised patients in the context of new variants?

What measures are suggested to combat the evolution of the virus?
