All antibodies against SARS-CoV-2 so far neutralize its variants, Prof. Radka Argirova, chairman of the Bulgarian Society of Virology, said in an interview with the Bulgarian National Television. The vaccines work, there is currently no new strain and everything is SARS-CoV-2, she specified.

It is possible for the amount of antibodies to increase over time and this is the effect of cellular immunity, the scientist explained. Prof. Radka Argirova admitted the possibility of seeing the appearance of more mutations and variants of the coronavirus.

"We already have a Brazilian, a South African, a week ago a Japanese variant appeared, in the summer we went through the Spanish variant," she added. According to her, when a certain number of mutations and variants accumulate, there will be a new strain.
