CONNECTICUT The number of coronavirus variant cases in the state has climbed by 563 cases, according to the latest data released by the Connecticut Department of Public Health.
Variants of the coronavirus are watched carefully by health officials as they can be more contagious, more resistant to vaccines, or even more deadly. New coronavirus variants have been at the heart of COVID-19 surges throughout the world, most notably in the U.K.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention have identified three types of coronavirus variants: variants of interest, variants of concern and variants of high consequence. The CDC has also just introduced a new category, substitutions of therapeutic concern, which can be found across all variants, and may be more resilient against certain man-made antibodies.
