At a press conference in Russian, the Belgian Hans Kluge pointed out that the new coronavirus, like everyone else, changes over time and made sure to understand the alarm at the emergence of variants such as the so-called B117, identified last September in the United Kingdom. Kluge argued that all European countries should increase their efforts to trace genetic sequences of SARS-CoV-2 samples and exchange information on them.
