  : The scaled variances of the primordial and final positively charged hadrons in central A+A collisions are presented at different c.m. energies $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$ (see also Fig. 1, left). The calculations are done for the HG with Boltzmann statistics in the GCE. The excluded volume parameter, $v=16\pi r^3/3$, is taken to be the same for all hadron species ($r=0$ corresponds to the ideal HG results). The condition $n_{tot}\cong1/v$ corresponds to largest possible VDW total particle density, and this gives an upper limit of the VDW suppression effect for the scaled variances. \[Table2\]
