Virologist told when coronavirus will cease to be dangerous

According to the virologist and doctor of sciences of Ukraine Alla Mironenko, in the near future, coronavirus may cease to be so dangerous. The disease, which today kills hundreds of people daily, can transform into a common cold without fatal consequences.

In Europe, the virus is only gaining momentum, so it is too early to talk about its transition to a safe form. The acute course of the disease at the moment is a biological law. This always happens with new strains, the immunity of people must overcome the pathogen and adapt.

Adaptation always occurs from the side of the virus: it adapts to the human body and then does not cause serious symptoms. There is another scenario: the strain disappears for a long time. Alla Mironenko believes that development will follow the first path given, that is, people will regularly get coronavirus. SARS-CoV-2 will not disappear.
