The epidemiologist called the worst scenario for the development of a pandemic for humanity

The selection of people from the point of view of evolution is the “worst” consequence of the pandemic, however, due to the wide variety of genotypes, humanity will remain resistant to the virus. This was stated by DOCTOR of Biological Sciences, Professor of the School of Systems Biology at George Mason University in the usa , virologist Ancha Baranova in an interview with Lenta.ru.

“The most sensitive genotypes will simply multiply less – I’m not saying they will die out,” said Baranova. He explained that in general, humanity has a wide variety of genotypes, so some people are more resistant to covid-19 , some are less.

If a woman gets sick with CORONAVIRUS every six months, is not vaccinated and tries to get pregnant, then under such conditions, Baranova believes, she is likely to give birth to fewer children than a woman who is resistant to COVID-19 herself and is vaccinated. “Given that the number of children in these groups will be different, on average, the human population will become more resistant to coronavirus, and soon,” the virologist emphasized.

According to Baranova, there are options in the human genome that indicate that in the past, people evolved rapidly due to external circumstances. Most Europeans, the virologist gave an example, often do not have the genes that produce one of the lambda family interferons, while most Africans do.
