The novel Corona virus mutates around once every two weeks and as a result, regular booster vaccines to fight it a very much a part of our future.

新穎的電暈病毒每兩週就會發生一次變異，是以，定期加強疫苗來對抗它是我們未來的一個非常重要的部分。

Sharon Peacock, who heads Covid 19 Genomics UK, has sequenced half of all the novel coronavirus genomes so far mapped globally, She says, international cooperation is essential in the battle against it.

英國Covid 19基因組學負責人Sharon Peacock已經對全球迄今為止繪製的所有新型冠狀病毒基因組的一半進行了測序，她說，國際合作在對抗它的戰鬥中至關重要。

It mutates slower than influenza or HIV, but enough to require tweaks to vaccines.

它的變異速度比流感或HIV慢，但足以要求對疫苗進行調整。

We have to appreciate that we were always going to have to have booster doses.

我們要體會到，我們總是要有助推劑的。

Immunity to coronavirus doesn't last forever.

對冠狀病毒的免疫力不會永遠持續下去。

We know that.

我們知道這一點。

And we know that from looking at immunity against the common cold, for example.

比如說，我們從對普通感冒的免疫力就可以知道這一點。

So we know there are waves of infection over time, so our immunity to coronavirus does Wayne.

所以我們知道隨著時間的推移會有一波波的感染，所以我們對冠狀病毒的免疫力也會韋恩。

So we're always going to be looking at booster doses over time.

所以，我們總是要看隨著時間的推移，助推劑的劑量。

But now what we're looking at is the fact that the virus will continue to mutate is inevitable, that that will occur.

但現在我們看到的是，病毒會繼續變異是不可避免的，會發生的。

But we'll keep ahead of that mutation by having available vaccines that cope with the changes that the virus throws at us.

但是，我們會在這種突變之前，通過有可用的疫苗來應對病毒給我們帶來的變化。

If you like co UK set up exactly a year ago, is now the world's biggest depository of knowledge about the virus is genetics.

如果你喜歡英國的co成立正好一年前，是現在世界上最大的病毒知識庫是遺傳學。

Three main coronavirus variants, which were first identified in Britain, Brazil and South Africa, are under particular scrutiny.

首次在英國、巴西和南非發現的三種主要冠狀病毒變種，受到特別關注。

Peacock said she was most worried about the variant from South Africa.

孔雀說，她最擔心的是來自南非的變種。

The reason that I'm concerned about that is that it is more transmissible.

我擔心的原因是，它的傳播性比較強。

But it also has a change in the genome mutation, which we refer to as E 44 k, which is associated with reduced immunity.

但是它也有一個基因組突變的變化，我們稱之為E 44 k，它與免疫力下降有關。

So our immunity is reduced against that virus, and so that's one that does concern me.

所以我們的免疫力對這種病毒的抵抗力會降低，所以這一點我確實很擔心。

In particular, with 100 and 20 million cases of Covid 19 around the world, it's getting hard to keep track of all the alphabet super variants peacocks teams are now thinking in terms of constellations of mutations.

特別是，全球有1億和2000萬例科維德19，很難跟蹤所有的字母超級變種孔雀團隊現在正以星座突變的方式思考。
