ʻI Sepitema 2021 meimei 70% of UCL patients who tested positive for COVID-19 had the Mu variant.
Fakatatau ki he UCL lolotonga e uike tatau pe, naʻe lau ʻa e Epsilon variant ʻo laka hake ʻi he 80% ʻo e ngaahi meʻa foʻou ʻi he U.S.. ʻOku pehe ʻe he kau mataotao ki he moʻui lelei ʻoku ’ s angamaheni ki ha faingataʻaʻia foʻou ʻo ha vailasi ke mafola lahi ange koeʻuhi he ʻoku faʻa lelei mo faingofua ange hono ʻave.
ʻI he tukui kolo ʻoku siʻisiʻi ange ai e huhu maluʻi, tautautefito ki he ngaahi feituʻu ʻuta ʻoku fakangatangata pe ʻenau lava ʻo tokangaʻi, the Mu variant could be even more damaging. Kuo ʻosi mamataʻi ʻeni ʻi he funga ʻo e mamani ʻi ha ngaahi fonua ʻoku ʻikai ke ʻi ai ha huhu maluʻi ʻe 19 ʻoku ʻikai #8217; ʻikai lava ke maʻu. ʻOku pehe ʻe he kau mataotao ki he moʻui lelei ʻe lava ke ongoʻi ʻa e ola ʻi he ngaahi taʻu lahi ka hoko mai.
Kuo hanga ʻe he faingataʻaʻia lahi COVID-19 ʻo toe tokanga taha ki he fakaʻehiʻehi.
Mei he meʻa ʻoku tau ʻilo ʻi he tuʻunga ko ʻeni, ko e kakai ko ia ʻoku huhu maluʻi kakato mei he coronavirus ʻoku kei hokohoko atu pe ʻenau maʻu ha maluʻi malohi mei he COVID-19 ʻo fakafehoanaki kiate kinautolu ʻoku ʻikai, Neongo ʻoku faleʻi ʻe he UCL ha ngaahi fakatamaki lahi ange kau ai ʻa e ngaahi fakahinohino fakapuli ʻo tatau ai pe pe ʻoku huhu maluʻi koe pe ʻikai.
"Ngaahi meʻa ʻoku lolotonga hoko," ʻa ia ʻoku maʻu ai ʻe he kakai ʻoku huhu maluʻi kakato ʻa e COVID-19, ʻoku kei lau pē ʻoku hāhāmolofia, even with Mu, ʻo fakatatau ki he UCL, ka ʻo kapau ʻe uesia ha taha ʻoku huhu maluʻi, te nau lava ʻo ʻave ʻa e vailasí. (ʻOku kei hokohoko atu pe hono fakafuofuaʻi ʻe he UCL ʻa e fakamatala pe ʻe lava ke fakamafola ʻe he kakai ʻoku ʻikai ke nau maʻu ha ngaahi fakaʻilonga ʻa e vailasi.)

ʻOku mahuʻinga ke manatuʻi ia, neongo ʻoku ola lelei ʻaupito ʻa e vaccines, ʻoku ʻikai ke nau tokonaki 100% maluʻi, ko ia ʻi he tokolahi ange ʻa e kakai ʻoku huhu maluʻi, mahalo ʻe ʻi ai ha ngaahi meʻa lahi ange ʻoku lolotonga hoko, ʻoku pehe ʻe he UCL. Neongo kuo ʻi ai ha hospitalizations, ʻoku kei ʻomi pē ʻe he ngaahi huhu maluʻi kotoa pē ʻa e maluʻi lelei taha mei he puke lahí, hospitalization mo e mate, ʻoku pehē ʻe he tauʻatāina ke.
ʻE lava ke uesia ʻe he kakai ʻoku huhu maluʻi kakato ʻa e niʻihi kehe, ka ʻoku toe lipooti foki ʻe he UCL ʻa e lahi ʻo e naunau tukufakaholo viral ʻe holoa vave ange ʻi hono huhu maluʻi e kakai mei he Fakakeheʻi ʻo e Epsilon—ko ia, neongo kuo maʻu kinautolu ke nau toʻotoʻo ʻa e vailasi tatau ʻi honau ihu mo e throats ko ha kakai ʻoku ʻikai ke nau maluʻi, kuo toe ʻilo foki ʻe he ngaahi ako te nau lava ʻo mafola ʻa e vailasi ʻi ha taimi siʻisiʻi ange ʻiate kinautolu ʻoku ʻikai huhu maluʻi.
Tatau ai pe pe ʻoku huhu maluʻi koe pe ʻikai, ʻoku toe mahuʻinga foki ke muimui ki UCL ngaahi fakahinohino ki he fakaʻehiʻehi ʻoku lava ke maʻu ʻe he kakai huhu maluʻi mo ʻikai huhu maluʻi. ʻI he hokohoko atu hono vaccinate ʻe he ngaahi ngaue ha kakai tokolahi ange ʻi he U.S., ʻoku fokotuʻu mai ʻe he UCL ʻa e "ngaahi founga fakaʻehiʻehi layered," pea ʻoku kau ai hono tui ʻo e ngaahi fakapuli ʻi he ngaahi feituʻu ʻoku ʻi ai e kakai ʻi he ngaahi feituʻu ʻoku lahi pe maʻolunga, ʻo tatau ai pe pe ʻoku huhu maluʻi koe pe ʻikai. Kuo toe fokotuʻu mai foki ʻe he tauʻataina ke fili ha tepi fakapipiki fakamamani lahi maʻa e kau faiako kotoa pe, kau ngāué, kau akó, mo e kau ʻaʻahi ki he ngaahi ʻapiako K-12.
