This variant infects a lot but the pressure on the hospitals is not heavy, I am more worried about contagions among health professionals, which take away staff. The situation is frankly under control. , we must not be alarmed “the government member said again. “We are about to reach the plateau, the increase in cases is mainly due to those who have symptoms and do not take the test. This wave is similar to the others, but the variant is now much more contagious. We must say that, however, in terms of aggression it is much less serious than in the waves of the past “.
