develop vaccines to deal with the mutant virus in South Africa by this fall.

"We're currently developing a vaccine that can counter South African mutations," said Sarah Gilbert, a senior researcher at the Oxford research team, in an interview on the 7th (local time). "We think we'll have a new vaccine that can be used in the fall."

Earlier last week, British health authorities ordered people in eight regions where the spread of South Africa's stool to be tested even if they did not have covid-19 symptoms. This is because there have been cases where the mutant virus was found even though he has never been to South Africa.

More than 100 South African mutants have been found in Britain. The test is aimed at preventing the mutation from spreading too much to interfere with the UK's vaccination project.

Britain has launched a vaccination plan faster than the European Union, although the Korona 19 situation is serious due to the mutant virus. So far, about 11.5 million people have received the first covid-19 vaccine in the UK.
