“Some unpublished studies tell us that stopping a new virus requires 10-40 times more antibodies than those that are sufficient to neutralize the original strain,” he explained. At the same time, the specialist added that the “omicron” strain can bypass both antibodies obtained after two vaccinations and those that appeared after recovery. According to him, the effectiveness of the coronavirus vaccination course can be discussed only after the third dose of vaccination. However, the specialist noted one nuance. “We should not think that the need to do a second injection is proof of the failure of these drugs against COVID,” said the virologist. According to Palu, scientists cannot yet say for sure how much more painful the new strain is compared to delta. “The experience of South Africa, which would seem to indicate this, does not work here. The population of South Africa is younger than the European one, the

Regions are leaders in the number of new cases: Moscow – 2630 (2,005,710 since the beginning of the pandemic), Saint Petersburg – 1958 (831 206), Moscow Region – 1935 (626,351), Krasnoyarsk Territory — 642 (166 863), Perm Krai — 619 (154,246). Last week, the level of collective immunity to coronavirus in Russia exceeded 58%. The authorities admit that due to the spread of the omicron strain, the terms of revaccination and the validity of certificates may be adjusted. At least 25 Russians were infected with Omicron. On December 16, the State Duma adopted in the first reading a government bill on the introduction of QR codes on vaccination, the presence of antibodies or a medical device for visiting public places.

“When a person usually gets sick with coronavirus, people start dying somewhere in three to four weeks. If you believe the reports that the high incidence was a few days ago in the UK, where the omicron strain penetrated, then you need to wait three weeks to understand what is happening to these people. I think it’s okay with them (sick patients. – “Kommersant”) will not,” Altstein said in an interview with Ura.ru . The expert noted that new data on the omicron strain will appear by the New Year. “The disease has no clear distinguishing features. It goes like a cold. So far, from what has been described, the diseases are not severe, but we are talking mainly about young people from South Africa,” the professor added. According to the latest data from the operational headquarters for the fight against coronavirus, less than 28 thousand COVID-19 cases have been

As a source familiar with the situation told Izvestia, usually city authorities in problem regions turn a blind eye to illegal construction, since they receive money from developers — about 10% of the cost of the house. In the future, the company applies to the court so that it recognizes the object as legitimate on the basis of an examination confirming the safety of the building (compliance with urban planning standards). The local authorities who received the reward are not against it. For example, 80-90% of all apartment buildings on the coast of the Krasnodar Territory and in large cities of the subject were put into operation by court decision, the interlocutor of the editorial office said. According to the source of Izvestia, if at some stage the agreement of the developer with the authorities is violated, the house may be recognized as a self-building, subject to demolition. In fact,

As part of the study, 1.2 thousand representatives of companies involved in competitive procedures from different regions were interviewed. 53% – from microenterprises, 34% – from small businesses, 6% – from medium, 7% – from large. The results are provided by RBC. At least two-thirds of respondents indicated the existence of informal payments by the customer, 28% found it difficult to answer or refused to answer. 37% of companies named collusion between the customer and the supplier or between bidders as the main factor for obtaining a state order. The total amount of bribes of 6.6 trillion rubles is comparable to 35.3% of the budget revenue or 6.2% of GDP. The size of the bribe varies from 3% to 65% of the contract value. Most often called shares in 3%, 5%, 10%, 15% and 20%. 14% of respondents indicated a zero amount. The authors drew conclusions not only based on

“The authors of the article have provided quite convincing evidence that Omicron has made a double jump,” Konstantin Krutovsky, professor of the Department of Genomics and Bioinformatics of SibFU, Professor of the University of Göttingen, noted in his conversation with Izvestia. In the article, Chinese scientists drew attention to two mutations that only Omicron has and are absent from other strains. “It is noteworthy that only Q493R and Q498R (Omicron mutations. – Izvestia) significantly increased the affinity (strength of binding interaction with mouse ACE2 (receptor, “entrance gate” for coronavirus), which corresponds to their detection in mouse-adapted variants of SARS-CoV-2,” the researchers noted. Adapted viruses are viruses specially created in laboratories that can infect mice. Scientists have modified human SARS-CoV-2 with the help of directed mutagenesis. They took ordinary SARS-CoV-2 and transferred it from human cells to mouse cells, gradually increasing the infectivity. Thus, several strains of “mouse” SARS-CoV-2 were created,

Decree of Peter I on postponing the celebration of the New Year in Of Russia Since 1492, the “Byzantine” calendar was introduced in Russia, according to which the next year was counted from September 1. However, on December 20, 1699, the Russian tsar Peter I signed a decree on the transition of Russia to a new chronology and the postponement of the celebration of the beginning of the year to January 1. In the document, the tsar ordered to decorate houses with pine, spruce and juniper branches, and to congratulate each other as a sign of fun. In addition, fireworks, cannon and rifle salutes were arranged on Red Square, and city residents were told to fire muskets and launch rockets near their homes. The festivities on the occasion of the New Year lasted until January 6 and ended with a procession to the Jordan. For residents of West Berlin, passage through
