"Now all over the world, different strains of coronavirus are constantly found, and many of them are as unpleasant as the Brazilian or British. The Indian strain is troubling. These strains are already in Russia. They compete with each other, and it is not yet clear which of them will win in what locality. I think that in the next month or two in Russia everything will be determined by the weather", - quotes RIA Novosti the words of the biologist.

The expert explained that if it is hot, the spread of COVID-19 between people will decrease, and it will be possible to avoid a surge in the incidence. But if it is cloudy, "people will gather at home in large rooms, and this contributes to a greater spread of the coronavirus".

It's that the World Health Organization (WHO) recently reported on the increased permeability of the Indian strain of coronavirus. According to experts, one of the reasons for the sharp increase in the incidence in India is the feature of the Indian strain of coronavirus. The first mutation leads to a higher infectivity of the virus, and thanks to the other, it hides from antibodies.
