Authorities are still looking to put together a combination of the puzzle of the birth of Queensland’s new COVID-19 cluster, however, two new theories have emerged.
The state fitness officer showed Tuesday that early serological tests showed that patients in the Brisbane Youth Detention Centre group had the same COVID-19 strain as one of the two women who contracted the virus after returning from Melbourne: B 1.1.25.
Dr. Jeannette Young said it was imaginable that the two groups were connected, but that the government had no “links.”
Authorities are investigating two other theories on how the most recent outbreak began, adding that the cluster would possibly have been caused through a guest at the youth detention center, which has not yet been detected as a positive case, or by a traveler who passed through the youth detention center. quarantine of the hotel. Fixed it bringing the virus to the state.
According to the Courier Mail, the government has not ruled out that the most recent outbreak may have originated in some other way, adding who returned from an access point and lied.

The first victim of the newest group is a 77-year-old woman working at the Brisbane Youth Detention Centre. Since then, four others have tested positive and five close contacts have also been infected.
Genomic sequencing shows that the 77-year-old woman has the B strain of COVID-19 B. 1.1.25, the same strain as one of the two in Logan’s group.

Olivia Winnie Muranga had the same COVID variant and then lit dinner at a Sunnybank restaurant.
Her companion, Diana Lasu, was inflamed with the B.1.36 lineage of SARS-CoV-2.
All other youths housed at the centre were assessed, and the fitness officer said there were only 16 staff members left to be evaluated.
This occurs when Queensland did not register new cases amid more than 8,000 tests.

Dr. Young said serological tests were being conducted on young people and staff to determine if any of them had ever become inflamed with the virus and could be the missing link between the two outbreaks.
Similar tests are being carried out in the 10 new instances to determine whether one of them was “patient zero” in this group, which can help establish the link between the youth detention centre outbreak and that triggered by the two returning women from Melbourne. .
She said the B. 1.1.25 strain is not unusual in New South Wales and Victoria.

But Dr. Young cautioned that there could still be an unidentified case on the network connecting clusters to others.
“It seems that this group has the same viral strain as one of the young men who went to Melbourne,” he said.
“That doesn’t work out, I want more information, which is done in the next 24 to 48 hours to be at your disposal.
“But at this point it turns out that they could be related … But we don’t have the case between the two groups.”
Dr. Young asked more people to take the test. Thanks to existing capabilities, up to 20,000 more people can be tested in Queensland in a day without getting married, but on Monday only another 8,000 people got sick.

It occurs when scientists using the COVID-19 vaccine at the University of Queensland say it has worked in animal trials and has not produced serious side effects in early human studies.
The S-clamp vaccine was tested in hamsters in the Netherlands and provided coverage to animals exposed to SARS-CoV-2, the culprit coVID-19 virus.
The first effects of the Brisbane human trial on 120 healthy adults are promising and have caused primary headaches after a single dose.
UQ scientist Keith Chappell said for courier Mail’s purposes that the vaccine is and will likely “provide coverage against viral infection and symptoms of the disease.”
“In hamsters, hopefully we can say that we get a neutralizing immune reaction more potent than the average infection in a human being,” he said.
“The infection of a human being in the genuine world is different from that of a hamster in the lab, but we hope that there are parallels there and that those effects go in the right direction. Looks good.
