“It is not the strongest of the species that survives, nor the most intelligent that survives.
It is the one that is most adaptable to change” <\/em><\/p>\n– Charles Darwin<\/em><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

It seems as though the media has moved on from reports of cases of the COVID-19 infections the world. With the Covid-19 vaccination, it appears as though the virus might just faze out on its own. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Although, the panic and anxiety have reduced drastically, it does not mean that people do not continue to live on the edge. The death tolls may have reduced, but the pandemic has equally brought social and economic breakdown alongside. To date, people still get infected with Covid-19.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Is Covid here to Stay?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

It seems that the Corona virus disease does a very good job at finding new persons to infect even after they have been vaccinated<\/a>. Hence, it is safe to say that Covid is here to stay as it appears not to have an end in sight.
Matter of fact, Covid having variants goes to show that this is not just a virus that will simply disappear on its own. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

A variant usually occurs because of the constantly changing nature of a virus. This variance causes different forms of illness after invading into the body system depending on the type. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

For instance, the variant of Covid named, Omicron<\/em> is causing a rise in infections in South Africa, Canada, Asia, Europe, Germany and about twenty other countries. This virus was declared by the World Health Organization (WHO) to be a variant of concern. It causes common cold and is highly contagious.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The Omicron virus as a variant of concern has fast and easy access to cells and also has a lot (about 30 to 60) of mutations. In immune-compromised persons and areas of low surveillance, mutations result in severity and easy spread of this infection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
