Highly infectious coronavirus mutation from UK now tearing across US
The highly infectious COVID-19 mutation from Britain has landed in America and is predicted to tear through the already virus-ravaged nation.
A terrifying coronavirus mutation that originated in the UK has made its way to the US, sparking fears of an even deadlier crisis to come.
The new super-contagious B117 coronavirus variant has just been detected in America, with the first patient in Colorado and just a day later, a second in southern California.
Neither the Colorado nor the San Diego County patient has any known travel history, which would suggest that the variant emerged within the community.
A UK study found the mutant strain was so contagious it managed to triple its numbers while Britain was in lockdown, while the more common strain reduced its prevalence by a third.
White House infectious diseases adviser Dr Anthony Fauci said more cases in more states would have already landed, and that the mutant strain’s efficiency meant it was “inevitable” that it will spread across the US.
“We predicted it would be, when you have so much of it in the UK, which then spread to other countries in Europe and Canada, it was inevitable that it would be here,” he said.
“The transmissibility of this mutant is more efficient than the transmissibility of the standard virus that we’ve been dealing with up to now.
“Namely, it’s able to bind to the receptors on cells better, and therefore it’s transmitted better.
“It appears … this particular mutation does in fact, make the virus better at transmitting from one person to another.
