Title: Covid-19 mutations underestimated, Chinese scientists warn, as they discover new DEADLIER virus strains

Covid-19 mutations underestimated, Chinese scientists warn, as they discover new DEADLIER virus strains

A team of Chinese scientists has found dozens of new coronavirus strains, including some that destroy a host’s cells faster than others. Now, they warn that the most aggressive strains have spread across Europe and New York.

The ability of the novel coronavirus to mutate has been previously vastly underestimated, a team from China’s Zhejiang University, led by Professor Li Lanjuan, says in a new study.

The group found as many as 33 virus mutations in just 11 coronavirus patients they examined in the city of Hangzhou.

The researchers say that 60 percent of the strains they discovered turned out to be entirely new.

In a worrying development, they also discovered that the virus’s mutations directly affect its deadliness.

Their research revealed that the most aggressive type of Covid-19 could create a virus load 270 times greater than the least potent one.

“Despite only 11 patient-derived isolates being analyzed in this study, we observed abundant mutational diversity, including several founding mutations for different major clusters of viruses now circulating globally,” the study said.

The virus load is the measure of its quantity in a certain volume of bodily fluid, usually blood plasma. It particularly shows how quickly a pathogen could propagate through the organism and destroy its cells. Unfortunately for Europeans, one of the most aggressive strains found by the Chinese scientists appears to be similar to the one that has spread across the continent, particularly Italy and Spain, the pre-print of the study published on the website medRxiv.org revealed on Sunday.

The same strain came from Europe to New York, which has since become one of the worst affected US states. America’s West Coast, however, appears to be infected by another, less deadly strain that arrived directly from China.

Nonetheless, that doesn’t mean those on the West Coast have less cause for concern, as even less powerful strains can cause a serious ailment, the Zhejiang University team warns. They note that two of the observed patients, in their 30s and 50s, who contracted a weaker strain, still suffered severe symptoms.

Most importantly, though, the scientists say their discoveries could affect the development of the much-needed vaccine, because a one-size-fits-all solution might not work in case of Covid-19.

“Drug and vaccine development, while urgent, needs to take the impact of these accumulating mutations, especially the founding mutations, into account to avoid potential pitfalls,” the team says.

Globally, the novel coronavirus has thus far infected more than 2.3 million people and claimed more than 170,000 lives.

It's about time they upped their game. That piss-ant virus they release last winter isn't killing near enough people to reduce the population.

Not to worry. If the virus doesn't kill those useless eaters, the foot shortages will. Starving people don't have much of an immune system.

Viruses generally evolve to become less virulent over time. A virus needs to allow its host to survive long enough to pass the virus along to the next host. Killing the host too quickly is an evolutionary dead end. A new virus that has recently crossed over from another species of animal is very virulent at first because it has not had time to mutate into a less virulent form. Social distancing should also create evolutionary pressure on the virus to become less virulent since it slows transmission.

Ebola is still around in its most 90% fatal virulent form. Not as easy transmittable as Covid 19, but it manages to get the job done without losing virulence.

Less virulent forms of Ebola do exist though, and being infected with non-virulent Ebola can protect you against the virulent type.
