New Delhi: ‘NeoCov.’ This is the name of a new type of coronavirus in South Africa. According to scientists from China’s Wuhan, it has a high death and transmission rate.
According to a report by the Russian news agency Sputnik, the NeoCov virus is actually not new. Associated with the MERS-CoV virus, it was discovered in outbreaks in Middle Eastern countries in 2012 and 2015 and is similar to the SARS-CoV-2, which causes coronavirus in humans.
