Covid-19 variant delta, first identified in India, is becoming the dominant variant of the disease worldwide, the WHO's chief scientist said Friday. That's because of its “significantly increased transmissibility,” Dr. Soumya Swaminathan, the WHO's chief scientist, said during a news conference.

Answer 2

Mutations in the Delta variant make it replicate faster and evade the body's immunity mechanism. According to WHO, it is the 'fastest and fittest' variant yet. The Delta variant is 50-60 per cent more transmissible than the Alpha variant which was 50-60 per cent more transmissable than the original strain of COVID -19 .
