On the air of the radio station "Moscow speaking", Candidate of Medical Sciences, Associate Professor of the Department of Infectious Diseases of the RUDN University Sergei Voznesensky stressed that the influenza virus can mutate and therefore one should not expect a complete victory over it. According to the expert, in the next decade Russia will not get rid of this pathogen. “Will not disappear. Today we can say with confidence that we have eradicated only smallpox. All other infectious diseases are manageable. Most often they are manageable thanks to vaccines. For all cases of flu to disappear, it is necessary to defeat the flu in all people one hundred percent. This is, unfortunately, a utopia. The virus will still change, we will still make a vaccine taking into account this variability, if such work lasts 20 years, then it will probably be possible to stutter about the victory over the flu. But in the next decade we will not get rid of the flu unequivocally. " Popova also said that Rospotrebnadzor will monitor the situation until March and then make final conclusions about the flu in Russia.
