Authors: Tulio De Oliveira and CERI & KRISP team - 2023-01-10
Summary: The so-called ' kraken variant' is being called the most transmissible yet but scientists in South Africa have been at pains to reassure the population, that that there's no need to panic. For more, we speak to Professor Tulio de Oliveira, director of the Centre for Epidemic Response & innovation at Stellenbosch University.
KRISP has been created by the coordinated effort of the University of KwaZulu-Natal (UKZN), the Technology Innovation Agency (TIA) and the South African Medical Research Countil (SAMRC).
