World Health Organization (WHO) Chief Scientist Dr Soumya Swaminathan warned that there will be rise in Corona cases globally because virus due to multiple factors.

But number of deaths will be less due to targeted vaccination of vulnerable populations.

“Many countries in Western Europe is seeing a surge in infections, some increase in hospitalization due to a number of reasons… but not a significant increase in deaths. So, an uncoupling between infections and deaths, largely because the vulnerable groups have been almost entirely vaccinated,” Dr Swaminathan said in a interview to a news channel.

The renowned scientist from Indian origin also argued that the double dose of vaccine would suffice for at least a year or possibly longer. “The new evidence that is coming out seems to suggest that vaccine-derived immunity will stay for a long time, even if the level of antibodies in the blood starts declining… But for the majority of healthy adults, a course of vaccination should be good protection for at least a year, possibly, possibly longer."

However she says that there is still need of more datas to fully evaluate on the need for the third booster dose as some of health experts across globe have been advocating. “It is a very interesting concept and the question of heterologous boosters, or what is called mix and match… But this data needs to be generated, we cannot come to conclusions without seeing the data,” she added.
