There is no need to be unduly apprehensive about the newly identified ‘deltacron’ variant of Covid-19, said Dr. Jude Jayamaha, a medical specialist at the Borella Medical Research Institute.
He noted that many of the reports about the new Covid variant, which was first discovered in Cyprus, were unscientific and speculative, adding that there is no data to substantiate that the variant is a hybrid of delta and omicron.
Revealing that there is no risk of infection to proceed for a lockdown, Dr. Jayamaha added that it is not possible to make predictions at this stage as to whether the country will have to be locked down again.
