“Variants that can infect people better or evade immunity to the last variant are more likely to cause a new COVID wave,” Peter Kasson, M.D., Ph.D., B.S., of the University of Virginia’s ...
This variant of SARS-CoV-2 has been named lineage P.1 (although it is a descendant of B.1.1.28, the name B.1.1.28.1 [67] [126] is not permitted and thus the resultant name is P.1), and has 17 unique amino acid changes, 10 of which in its spike protein, including the three concerning mutations: N501Y, E484K and K417T.
The Sun's corona is much hotter (by a factor from 150 to 450) than the visible surface of the Sun: the corona's temperature is 1 to 3 million kelvin compared to the photosphere's average temperature – around 5 800 kelvin. The corona is far less dense than the photosphere, and produces about one-millionth as much visible light.
FLiRT refers to a set of similar variants of the COVID-19 coronavirus that mutated from the JN.1 variant. The name comes from the positions of the mutations in the spike proteins. One of the ...

BA.2.86 was first reported by Denmark and Israel. [1] [11] On 18 August 2023, when only six cases had been reported from four countries (Denmark, Israel, the United Kingdom and the United States), the British healthcare authorities noted that its almost simultaneous appearance in several countries still operating detailed genomic surveillance indicated that it likely already was spreading more ...
The variant's parent lineage, BA.2.86, has a large number of mutations compared to the original version of omicron — and those changes have enabled the virus to sidestep existing immunity ...
