Scientists predicted a rapid spread of the British strain of coronavirus in the United States. This is reported by The Washington Post with reference to the unpublished work of American researchers.
Experts have found that this virus mutation is actively spreading throughout the country. So, the rate of its spread exceeds that of other strains of coronavirus by 35-45 percent. At this rate, scientists believe the British strain will quickly become dominant in the United States. They called on the US government to take urgent action to keep mortality and morbidity to a minimum.
Earlier it was reported that almost one in four Americans would like to refuse to be vaccinated against coronavirus. According to the survey, another 50 percent of respondents said they are ready to get vaccinated as soon as possible, and 6 percent of those surveyed have already been vaccinated.
