(NEXSTAR) — A brand new offshoot of the COVID-19 delta variant was liable for roughly 6% of instances in the UK as of late September, in keeping with officers with the U.K. Well being Safety Company.
The subvariant, generally known as AY.4.2, is just not but a variant of concern (VOC) or perhaps a variant of curiosity (VOI), although officers confirmed that instances gave the impression to be on an “growing” trajectory in an Oct. 15 report.
