From south africa every day. that's where most of the cases have so far been identified and where it appears the variant may be driving a new wave of infection. it may be more transmissible than the delta variant. and the vaccines that we currently have may be less effective against it. now, to be clear, we have not detected any of this new variant in the uk at this point in time, but we've always been clear that we will take action to protect the progress that we have made. the new variant was formally identified only three days ago. genetic analysis shows it has twice the number of mutations...

And will undergo further study. it will take a few weeks for us to understand what impact this variant has. the new variant was only identified four days ago. genetic analysis shows it has twice the mutations of delta, the dominant variant worldwide, including 30 changes to the spike protein which the virus uses to enter human cells. we haven't got evidence it is here yet. we haven't identified it in our sequencing and we are giving results of more than 50,000 cases a week. a huge amount. but there is travel from south africa across the globe and there are many rising cases in south africa at ...

Travellers arrive in the uk from south africa every day. that's where most of the cases have so far been identified and where it appears the variant may be driving a new wave of infection. it may be more transmissible than the delta variant. and the vaccines that we currently have may be less effective against it. now, to be clear, we have not detected any of this new variant in the uk at this point in time, but we've always been clear that we will take action to protect the progress that we have made. the new variant was formally identified only three days ago. genetic analysis shows it has t...

Early analysis show this variant has a large number of mutations that require and will undergo further study. it will take a few weeks for us to understand what impact this variant has. the new variant was only identified four days ago. genetic analysis shows it has twice the mutations of delta, the dominant variant worldwide, including 30 changes to the spike protein which the virus uses to enter human cells. we haven't got evidence it is here yet. we haven't identified it in our genome sequencing and we are giving results of more than 50,000 cases a week. a huge amount. but there is travel f...

In the uk at this point in time, but we've always been clear that we will take action to protect the progress that we have made. the new variant was formally identified only three days ago. genetic analysis shows it has twice the number of mutations as delta, the dominant variant worldwide, including around 30 changes to the spike protein which the virus uses to break into human cells. this makes it dramatically different from the original wuhan strain, on which all current vaccines are based. but crucially, there is no evidence yet the variant causes more severe disease or that it makes vacci...
