簡單翻譯
Delta plus variant - also known as AY.1 (下稱為Delta+)
印度官方在本周二已將Delta+列為關注變種病毒
Delta+相較於原版Delta
1.傳播力更強
2.更容易與肺部細胞結合
3.對疫苗或因確診所得抗體有更強耐性，甚至對單株抗體治療也有抗性
印度衛生部表示Delta+，最早在2021年4月在印度被發現。
在其他九個國家
美國、英國、葡萄牙、瑞士、日本、波蘭、尼泊爾、俄羅斯和中國也被發現
而原版Delta病毒株現已感染超過80個國家
India's health ministry says studies showed that the so-called Delta plus
variant - also known as AY.1 - spreads more easily, binds more easily to lung
cells and is potentially resistant to monoclonal antibody therapy, a potent
intravenous infusion of antibodies to neutralise the virus.
The variant is related to the Delta, an existing variant of concern, which
was first identified in India last year and is thought to have driven the
deadly second wave of infections this summer in India.
The health ministry says the Delta plus variant, first found in India in
April, has been detected in around 40 samples from six districts in three
states - Maharashtra, Kerala and Madhya Pradesh. At least 16 of these samples
were found in Maharashtra, one of the states hardest hit by the pandemic.
Delta plus has also been found in nine other countries - USA, UK, Portugal,
Switzerland, Japan, Poland, Nepal, Russia and China - compared to the
original highly contagious Delta strain, which has now spread to 80 countries.

對疫苗或因確診所得抗體，有更強耐性，可再次感染與攻擊
A consortium of Indian labs involved in genome sequencing to identify and
track the spread of various coronavirus variants told the government that
Delta Plus appears to have three worrying characteristics: Increased
transmissibility; more capacity to attack lung cells; and a potential
reduction in monoclonal antibody response — or, put simply, possible
resistance to vaccines and immunity gained through previous infection.

研究顯示對全年齡的人類都有影響感染能力
“Studies show these variants are more infectious and affect people of all
age groups,” reads the statement.
