We need to stop panicking about every new coronavirus variant – scientist

People need to stop panicking every time a new coronavirus variant is reported, a leading scientist has said, as Boris Johnson revealed he was “anxious” about the rise of the Indian variant in the UK.
B16172, which was first identified in India, was last week designated as a “variant of concern” by experts from Public Health England (PHE) after small clusters of cases were detected across the country.
Professor Robert Dingwall, who is a member of Nervtag (New and Emerging Respiratory Virus Threats Advisory Group) – an expert committee which advises the Government on the threat posed by new respiratory viruses – said that while B16172 may be capable of becoming the dominant variant in the UK, the risk of a surge in deaths or hospital admissions remains low.
