Varian AY.4 in Maha, but not yet a concern '
Written by news2in

Mumbai: Delta continues to be a dominant Covid variant in Pelabar in Maharashtra and India, but the presence of one of its derivatives or sub-lineages, named AY.4, grows.
Scientists say it is too early in the covid cycle to ascertain whether v.
4 is a matter of concern.
AY.4 was found in 1% of the sample tested from Maharashtra in April as part of the Indian Covid-19 genome supervision.
The proportion increased to 2% in July and 44% in August.
Closer appearance on the August report shows that while Delta (B.1.617.2) was found in 111 (36%) of 308 samples analyzed, AY.4 was found in 137 samples (44%).
Coronavirus Live Updatesat All-India levels as well, AY.4 presence increased from 5% of all samples tested in June to 8% in July and 45% in August.
The last Indian genome supervision report Covid-19 said while Delta and Sub-genealogy delta continued to become the main variant of global concerns, AY.4 was the main global sub-genuine.

Two factors set a separate delta and make it potentially most dangerous to date: First, about 40% higher transmission levels compared to alpha, which already has a 50% higher transmission than the original strain of viruses.
Second, it was also believed to cause a more severe disease than the latest genome sequence series resolved in the Laboratory of the Kasba Hospital last week also showed the presence of many “DERIVATIVES DELTA”, including AY.4.
“Delta and its derivatives, who were previously called Delta Plus, have not been considered a separate entity,” said civilians.
BMC Executive Health Officer Dr.
Mangala Gomare said there were Delta derivatives circulating, “but it was not significant”.
The BMC team is in the process of correlate delta reports with patient clinical reports to map if and how the variant has changed the symptoms and severity of Covid.
“The variant is a matter of worries only if we can build it has increased transmission, causing severe infections and / or can cause breakthrough infections,” said a doctor.
Evaluation for AY.4 Active at the global level.

The BMC genomic survey report last week showed that the Delta variant was responsible for breakthrough infections, but except for four patients who were fully vaccinated which required oxygen support, others have a mild disease.
The latest release of the Insacog Laboratory network that maintains the supervision of the Covid-19 Indian genome says there is a problem with the tools to classify AY.4 to AY.25 genealogy.
“While Insacog has begun to report a new lineage for better epidemiology, they are all deltas for clinical purposes and public health,” said his broadcast.
