The knowledge about Corona is increasing day by day.
Researchers from England have now discovered a surprising consequence of virus immunity in a study.
Anyone who
survived
a
corona infection
is then
immune
to the virus for a while
.
But what exactly does that mean for those
affected
and their fellow human beings?
A new
study from England
now provides
new information
.
London - The
corona pandemic *
has been going on for
almost a year
.
Some questions about the virus remain unanswered.
One
thing
is certain, however: Anyone who
has survived
a
Corona *
infection
is
immune for
a while afterwards
.
But what exactly does this mean for those affected and their fellow human beings?
Corona lockdown: researchers publish study - with alarming findings
Above all, one point that has so far been less of a focus stands out from the
new study by
the scientists: According to this, there are people who are immune after a corona * infection - but for this very reason can become a
danger
to their fellow human beings.
This is reported by the British public health authority,
Public Health England.
(PHE)
She published the study.
Specifically, this means:
Corona *
genes
can therefore be
immune
to Sars-CoV-2
for up to
five months
.
During this time, however, it is still possible that they will continue to carry the virus.
Even if there are
no
corona symptoms
, these people can continue to be infectious - and unconsciously infect other people.
According to a new corona study: Researchers appeal to the population
The researchers'
urgent appeal
: Even those who are immune should not
do without a
face mask
or the rules of distance.
"Even if you think you have already had the disease and are protected, (...) there is a risk that you could become infected and (the virus) transmitted to others," writes study director Professor Susan Hopkins in a press release from the PHE .
"Now more than ever, it is important that we all stay at home to protect our health systems and save lives."
Since June 2020, Corona * tests from a total of 20,787 health care workers across the UK have been evaluated for the study.
6,614 of these tested positive for
corona antibodies
, including 44 potential new infections.
Researchers at the Technical University of Vienna, on the other hand, managed a small sensation: Thanks to them, there is now the first photo of the coronavirus *.
In the corona lockdown, the demand for FFP2 masks is booming.
In many places the mouthguard is already sold out.
A virologist is now proposing an alternative to the FFP2 masks *.
