Is Covid Really Over??? A particularly contagious and deadly subvariant of the coronavirus delta mutant is spreading in Ukraine, the Institute of Molecular Biology and Genetics of the Ukrainian Academy of Sciences announced on Friday.

The AY.122 version, which is mainly widespread in Russia, has already been identified in seven counties in Ukraine. According to the announcement, the researchers identified 12 different variants of the delta mutant in samples obtained from a public health center under the Ministry of Health in Ukraine.

And their spectrum is different from those that spread in the country in November.

The experts added. According to them, the delta AY.122 subvariant, which is currently actively spreading in Russia, has appeared as a new variant in Ukraine. This subvariant is more contagious than other variants of the delta and causes serious complications, in many cases leading to death, scientists said. It was also suggested that this sub-variant is responsible for the high mortality rate in Ukraine.

New York Academy of Sciences - Junior Academy 2022

Hello!

So recently I applied to the Junior Program of 2022, and the decision results are said to be out by the 14th of January. I still haven't gotten a letter about whether I got accepted or declined. In the application itself, it says "Status: Under review". So I was just wondering if anybody had gotten their decision results yet.
