The new variant was first picked up by Imperial College London virologist Dr Tom Peacock, who shared details on aIn a chilling warning, Dr Peacock stated that the “incredibly high amount of spike mutations suggest this could be of real concern”, with cases so far found in three countries.
The B. 1.1529 variant – which is expected to be dubbed the Nu strain – was first detected in Botswana, Africa, on November 11.Three days later it had spread to South Africa, before jumping to Hong Kong after a 36-year-old man who had recently visited South Africa tested positive in quarantine upon his return on November 13.
He also predicted the strain could “escape from most known monoclonal antibodies”, indicating it could potentially cause fresh outbreaks across the globe by dodging the body’s defences. “I would definitely expect it to be poorly recognised by neutralising antibodies relative to Alpha or Delta. It is difficult to predict how transmissible it may be at this stage.
