Chinese Scientists find two Coronavirus’ strains

Coronavirus is muting: the Chinese Scientists found two strains of the virus

World Health Organization has already declared the coronavirus outbreak as a global heath emergency, the patient and the health officials are continually batting with the virus on every single day, of about 1000p confirmed cases of the virus 3406 is the number of the death toll and In between all these, Chinese Scientists have found mutation in Coronavirus -two strains of the virus now and said we could see a lot more mutation in coming future.

The primarily researched on the virus shows that the coronavirus has two strains. The more attractive one of which is COVID-19 that has infected 70$ of the people tested. The other one has the less attractive strain. The number of the patients affected with this virus is 30 in percentage wise.

The Research of the Mutation of the Coronavirus was conducted at Peking University’s School of Life Sciences and the Institute Pasteur of Shanghai. The more aggressive variant is being referred as L type while less aggressive one is being called as S Type.

In Wuhan, the place where the Coronavirus was originated, The L type Strain was observed more frequently. Apparently, this L type virus was more widespread during the early stages of the corovirus. But, the number is then decreased after the January 2020.

“Human intervention may have placed more severe selective pressure on the L type, which might be more aggressive and spread more quickly,” 

This is the good news at least we are seeing the drop down of the aggressive L Type strain. However, since the data available for the study was very limited. Therefore, it requires multiple follows ups in order to understand the evolution of the COVID-19.

According to the researchers, the different strains of the COVID-19 were most likely created by mutation. This means that a lot more strains of the virus could be seen in future.

“urgent need for further immediate, comprehensive studies that combine genomic data, epidemiological data, and chart records of the clinical symptoms of patients with coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19)”
