Karim: COVID variant in India not worrying

There are now quite a few COVID-19 variants circulating around the world.

Our Health Ministry says that the detection of cases at ports of entry, is of deep concern, and is being discussed as a matter of urgency.

So what are the risks for our population, when not even 400 000 people have been vaccinated?

India’s seeing a massive spike in infections with its own COVID-19 variant there.

But leading epidemiologist Professor Salim Abdool Karim, tells us that we shouldn’t be too worried about that right now.
