In the United Kingdom, a mysterious person is now being discovered who is involved in the Covid variant found in Brazil. This comes after six cases of the P.1 variant were detected in the UK. However, the identity of one of these cases was not yet known. According to BBC reports, the man lives in Croydon and his acquaintances have also been found.
According to UK Health Secretary Matt Hancock, the man stayed at home and there is no sign of a ‘forward spread’. However, as a precautionary measure, local testing is still being implemented. Dr Susan Hopkins from Public Health England said she hopes the vaccine will have a strong impact on reducing hospitalization and cases.

‘Most likely place ..’
This comes after the UK was named as the most likely place in the world where mutant strain of the coronavirus occurs as a result of the prevailing conditions. Junior Health Minister James Nicholas Bethell said, “If there is one place in the world where mutant mutation is likely to occur it will be in an area with a high level of infection and a high level of virus eradication with either a lock or a vaccination program ”. He said that country would be like Britain all over the world.
He said, “If you look around the world that country is more likely to be in Britain and we need to be on our feet to be prepared for unhelpful news on that front.” The health minister made this statement in response to comments made by a leading scientist who warned that a new unprotected variable would be at risk of “ultimate inevitability”. The health minister also spoke about vaccination in the UK, “We are not vaccinated. We are at the best vaccine – 20 million people is a huge achievement but we have a long way to go”.
