world. – It is possible to be infected with two variants of coronavirus at the same time, experts say after seeing a double infection in a 90-year-old woman.
The woman, who died in March 2021 in Belgium, had not been vaccinated. He had been infected with alpha and beta variants of Covid-19, which were first identified in the UK and South Africa. His doctors think he got them from two different people.
They believe that it is the first documented case of this type and also that, although it is rare, similar infections are occurring. The case is being discussed at this year’s European Congress of Clinical Microbiology and Infectious Diseases.

In January 2021, a group of scientists from Brazil reported that two people had been simultaneously infected with two types of coronavirus, one of them of the “worrying variant”.” Meanwhile, researchers in Portugal recently treated a 17-year-old boy who appeared to have contracted a second variant of Sars-CoV-2 while still recovering from a different pre-existing Covid-19 infection.
