due to an omicron sub-variant called BA.2 which is believed to be 30 % more transmissible than the initial strain.
"It will slowly, but surely overtake omicron," said Dr. Warner Greene and added,"It's moving at a slower pace, but still it will likely become the globally dominant variant."Dr. Warner Greene is a Senior Investigator for the Gladstone Institutes. His work in virology for over 30 years is leading him to keep a close eye on this data."There are hot spots forming in the United States. For example in the Chicago area," said Dr. Greene.
"We see that BA.2 mutations are going up in all of them. In some of them they are going up more quickly than others like for example in Oceanside in San Francisco they've gone up quite a bit compared to other locations," said Professor Boehm.
