Two mutant strains of the novel coronavirus may have combined their genomes to create a new and heavily mutated variant of the deadly SARS-CoV-2 virus, which is responsible for causing COVID-19.
As first reported by New Scientist, the B.1.429 variant of SARS-CoV-2 that originated in California has somehow had a recombination event with the highly transmissible B.1.1.7 variant that originated in the United Kingdom. If confirmed by other scientists, this would mark the first recorded time that the novel coronavirus has developed a recombinant strain during the pandemic, although it is not unusual for coronaviruses in general to recombine.
