The strain has climbed to make up 4.3% of new COVID-19 cases nationwide.
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention is now tracking the rise of another COVID-19 variant known as BN.1, according to figures published by the agency this month, marking the latest new Omicron descendant now spreading around the country this fall.estimatesPrevalence of the new strain is largest in the West, in the region that spans Arizona, California, Hawaii, and Nevada. 6.2% of new cases in that area, HHS Region 9, are from BN.1.
"Our best estimate is that it's doubling about every 10 days. So if you do the math, BQ.1.1 is likely to become dominant in the next months," Dr. Ashish Jha, the White House's top COVID-19 official, told CBS News last month in an interview. But the rise of the new strains threatens to bench other key tools used to treat and prevent COVID, especially for more vulnerable Americans.
