Speaking on a panel on CNBC, Stephane Bancel said, that over the next six months, as the Southern Hemisphere enters the fall and winter, we could see more variants of concern emerge, adding that booster shots will be needed as the virus is not going anywhere.
The comment comes a day after Moderna announced that a third dose of either its current COVID-19 shot or an experimental new vaccine candidate increases immunity against variants of COVID-19, first found in Brazil and South Africa.

Health officials in Russia authorised the one-shot Sputnik Light version of its coronavirus vaccine for use, the developers said on Thursday. The Russian Direct Investment Fund (RDIF) said in a statement that Sputnik Light "demonstrated 79.4 percent efficacy" compared to 91.6 percent for the two-shot Sputnik V.

The results were drawn from &lsquo;data taken from 28 days after the injection was administered as part of Russia's mass vaccination program between 5 December 2020 and 15 April 2021&rsquo;.

China has confirmed at least 18 cases of the &ldquo;double mutant&rdquo; coronavirus variant circulating in India. The infected include three Chinese nationals who worked near New Delhi and returned home last month. The Chinese Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) told state media that more Covid-19 cases imported from India were feared to be found in China.

Many Chinese social media users have called for stricter tracking and quarantining for those coming to China from India.

In a big move that would allow more countries to manufacture much-needed COVID-19 jabs United States has backed waving off intellectual property protections for Covid-19 vaccines, as countries struggle to manufacture the life-saving doses.

Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu has failed to meet a midnight deadline to put together a new governing coalition. The failure raises the possibility that his Likud party could be pushed into the opposition for the first time in 12 years.
The deadline closed a four-week window granted to Netanyahu by Israel's figurehead president.
The matter now bounces back to President Reuven Rivlin, who is expected in the coming days to give one of Netanyahu's opponents a chance to form an alternative coalition government.
If all efforts to form a govt fail, the country would be forced into another election, which will be the fifth in just over two years.

Researchers at the University of British Columbia in Canada have released the first images of one of the mutations of B.1.1.7 variant or the UK strain of the novel coronavirus. The variant was first detected in UK in December last year and experts believe it is responsible for rising number of cases in other countries, including India and Canada. The structural image released by the researchers is of the mutation classified by N501Y.&nbsp;
Dr Sriram Subramaniam, a professor at the&nbsp;University of British Columbia ,said that&nbsp;&nbsp;while the viruses keep mutating over time, the B.1.1.7 variant has an &ldquo;unusually large number of mutations&rdquo;.&nbsp;
A study of the variant structure has also indicated that&nbsp;existing vaccines against the disease are likely to remain effective in preventing mild and severe cases caused by the variant.&nbsp;
