Scientists sound alarm over triple-mutant 'Bengal strain' | India News

The “Bengal strain”, as a scientist has dubbed it, might be more infective, and something that experts find particularly worrying may be capable of escaping a person’s immune surveillance, even if that person was earlier exposed to a virus without this mutation, and even if vaccinated.
KOLKATA: The Covid-19 virus that is doing the rounds in Bengal is increasingly being found to be an indigenous triple-mutation (B.1.618), only the second one identified from India after the double mutant type (B.1.617) reported last month, reports Subhro Niyogi.

Experts in India have already discovered a strain dubbed a double mutant or B.1.617, which carries two mutations to the spike protein, E484Q and L452R.
The so-called Bengal variant, known as B.1.618, is thought to carry three mutations and experts fear it could be driving infection rates in India. ....

covid bengal strain: Why a new lineage or the 'Bengal strain' is troubling news

3,029,815.0
As India faces a turbulent time handling increasingly new COVID-19 cases, news has emerged about a new lineage (B.1.618), which is being colloquially called the Bengal strain .
According to a report by TOI s Subhro Niyogi, experts say that this lineage may be capable of escaping a person’s immune surveillance, even if that person was earlier exposed to a virus without this lineage, and even if vaccinated. There has, however, been no research yet to either corroborate or dismiss the fears.
Incidentally, the double mutant type (B.1.617) was only reported last month.
“The proportion of B.1.618 has been growing significantly in recent months in Bengal,” said Vinod Scaria, who researches genome mutations at the CSIR-Institute of Genomics and Integrative Biology (IGIB) on Twitter, adding, “along with B.1.617 it forms a major lineage in West Bengal”. ....
