A global study has found strong evidence that a new form of the coronavirus has spread from Europe to the US. The new mutation makes the virus more likely to infect people but does not seem to make them any sicker than earlier variations, researchers say.

A global study has found strong evidence that a new form of the coronavirus has spread from Europe to the US. The new mutation makes the virus more likely to infect people but does not seem to make them any sicker than earlier variations of the virus, an international team of researchers reported Thursday.

"It is now the dominant form infecting people," Erica Ollmann Saphire of the La Jolla Institute for Immunology and the Coronavirus Immunotherapy Consortium, who worked on the study, told CNN."This is now the virus."The study, published in the journal Cell, builds on some earlier work the team did that was released on a preprint server earlier in the year. Shared information on genetic sequences had indicated that a certain mutant version of the virus was taking over.

"There are potential consequences for the vaccines. We are actively investigating those possible consequences," Montefiore said.And, of course, they're keeping an eye out for other mutations."We might have dodged a bullet with this particular mutation, Saphire said."However, that is not to say that another mutation couldn't come on top of this one," she added."It would behoove us to remain vigilant.

which global study

This is not unexpected, and would plot a normal course for a virus

Coming from Europe? How? All borders are closed. And here the virus is mostly under control.

Doubt

Yep CNN wants to quit talking about the looters, destroyers, because now there true colors are showing. Multiple deaths because of the hooligans. Democrats HAVE BECOME IDIOTS! DemsHateAmerica

Just another flu

More fear campaign!

Cnn shut it down!!!! You do not have the credibility to report real news!!! Always fabricated false news! Disgusting!!!

Please stop your nonsense!

Who did this study? The same people that said HCQ was dangerous? Go on, keep embarrassing yourself.

🤣🤣🤣🤣

I thought this was news 3 months ago

Quick! Form mass protests to keep the virus at bay!!!!

Will end after Nov 4th

I must be having a déjà vu, or is this old news?

Deep State, still playing in that 'lab' are you?

They are so desperate for people to believe this dumb shit

Sounds like a study paid for by Trump and DeSantis. Gotta make an excuse to the exolosion of cases. Can't be because they have politicized and minimized the virus and masks.

Since the virus mutated, and the vaccine formulas were created a few months ago, are the pharma companies going to start over?

Is this a joke 🤦🏻‍♂️ A new strain of corona from Europe that spreads quicker than the virus that’s already in America. Yeah sure 🙄 Story’s like this are why you are FakeNews

It’s called the flu

When I was little we knew the news magazines in the check out with the My Three Head Baby story was fake. Now we have CNN clickbait on Twitter.

everyone work their arse off as safely as possible and lets get through this

AlexBerenson...thoughts?

Europeans spreading diseases? Oh my oh my

My friend got Covid at a protest.

You are being lied to. Wake up. Stop watching this bullshit news. It's not called a Plandemic for no reason.

well... if we here in Italy keep getting migrants from everywhere expect another 1000 mutations of the covid around the world...

Candle burns in every color till morning

European China

Why?

CNN: COVID Nonsense Network

Like I said in your other post, so does every other virus mutates, also I would like to add that Covid-19 mutations have been reported since May, y’all late.

Why should we believe you, ever. COVID19

FakeNews CNN is DESPERATE to blame white Europeans for something.

Be quiet already.

Is this some kind of sick joke?

The pathogenicity of the virus did not increase, but the infectivity of the virus increased. So is that good news?

Didn’t you post this like 9 times already?

That is what you guys say when the never ending corona begins in February. I just wanna press 'next' button on 2020.

Trump failed the American people.

A new study has also found that CNN is a fake news network that uses fake anonymous sources to besmirch President Trump, just so that old white dementia-ridden Biden wins.

Fake news...sponsored by china

More fear mongering. Nothing you've ever tweeted has been truthful, XiNN.

Here we go again

What a load of shit . Dont read and believe this garbage

cnn do y’all ever post anything positive?

Great, now we have the Euroflu I wonder what nickname trump will give it

Should we just stay in our homes for the rest of our lives

Are you trying to switch the blame on Europe?

It does not make the “sicker” or it does not make them sick?

Ya ya ya😴

Not sure for certain people you could make it get any deadlier. Even if you survive there are potential multiple system effects that make recovery to your previous life very difficult....ie pulmonary fibrosis, renal failure and more.

Hopefuly it doesnt mutate again in a deadlier string 🙏🙏

Scientifically I was under the impression that mutations take many many year to happen. It doesn’t happen without manipulation so quickly if it is from nature

Bullshit.

Stoooooop!

Again new study will find carona viruses spread through CNN channel to India

FakeNewsMedia I’m in Europe how come I haven’t heard about it ? Answers on a postcard

This virus is definitely male if it has a gender. “Oh in our last version our spikes weren’t big enough. Let’s see if we can mutate to make even BIGGER spikes to poke them.”

CNN's favourite word(s) are 'Study' & 'Experts'. And still fcking it up 😂

mehdirhasan Inject them with more and more fear, carry on.

Lies! All lies! Stop it! The national Enquirer has more real journalists than you!

Why are cases in Europe dropping so well then ?

Didn’t this get confirmed in March? Is your fear reporting not working out the way you thought?

CNN is the Virus

it's created by kimberly guilfoyle spreading her legs as well as the disease ..change her name to kimberly guilty foil !!!

Yeah, it’s harder to be any sicker than “dead”.

Unless this is a second mutation which mimics the first reported months ago, this is OldNews.

Wow. got caught cold manipulating the words and meaning of my 4th of July Speech. They were brazen, desperate. Watch what happens!

So. What

So the virus is getting smarter as people get dumber.

Shut up

Do you really believe anyone believes anything you say? I’m merely here to much you, CNN hasn’t been a source of news since you covered Vietnam...

The all or nothing days are here again!

BULLSHIT. Nice try FakeNews. Show us how it satisfies Koch's Postulate, or how the entire genome is sequenced, or this is just more corona virus propaganda.

Fake news, cnn = soros

Give it up CNN!

Now CCP mouth piece will publish this article and will say 'here is proof that corona originated from Europe'

OromoProtests

Shut up

ffs

Because of the nationwide protests the cases of Covid19 has increased tremendously.

Professor Clementi reveals how coronavirus today is a hundred times weaker than March. Massimo Clementi is a full Professor of Microbiology and Virology, University Vita-Salute San Raffaele, Milan, Italy. It's an absolutely macroscopic difference.

still keeping the dream alive...

We're not even finished with the first kind

Your kidding me right?!?! This ain’t what we needed to hear!! covid20 newstrain yourkidding

That's what what Bill Gates was saying the second wave is going to worse!! Has a patent yet, or a name. Lockstep

Lol

it doesn't need to make people sicker. Over 130 thousand Americans would agree on that if they could speak. Instead, they are in graves because of Trump's total failures.

Isn't this a very common occurrence? Lol

Stop.

Thanks for the update Chinese News Network

Which contradicts the study out of Italy where the virus is diminishing as it mutates. See why people are confused?

Sure

A natural vaccine.

Boring

中国有传播吗?

I knew it

It'll all disappear in a couple weeks, like a miracle...

Yea it’s called the CNN virus

Kill trump is her I am hearing people say. Are we safe since we hate him and his racist way

A study also said 40 million Americans might die so I don’t believe everything cnn tells me

Oh what the fuck

FEAR! FEAR! FEAR!

So if it’s MORE contagious than the first version, why are we not closing anything?

Sherdesm

Coronavirus be like

People the strain comes from Europe, in Europe they have flattened the curve and are starting to open up again, if it originated from there it's not a new doomsday coming. But we still have to fight it as they did over there. Wear your damned masked and stop whining.

You realize this goes against your narrative that if there is a more infectious Virus then THAT is what's to blame for the spike in infections, not Trump lol

Everyone should start mass protesting so that way it won’t spread 👍

Yet we wont do anything unless it benefits the rich. That goes for both parties !

Gee.... Should I step outside and take a deep breath? ......without a mask on too? 🖕😎🖕

we can do nothing but protect yourself

Did the riots have a part? Or just trump rallies?

The virus will go itself then..I pray for those that lost their loved one to this virus..its not easy

Why do they spread bad news only? Watching these guys is so depressing

Are you people fucking serious right now?

So you mean the second wave everyone has been talking about

no in fact it makes them less sick, if you were to look at data, instead of just clinging to politics

Hi China, paki explain itong project 2021 ninyo? Char

Some New Yorkers Had Coronavirus Antibodies in February, Study ShowsSome New Yorkers had antibodies for the coronavirus more than a week before the first official case in the state was announced, new research shows, signalling that the virus may have been introduced into the region earlier than previously thought Apparently more than 10M people were infected but the difference that others had no fear because of the name of the virus and treated it as a normal flu. Yep, our school nurse in MA was out sick for days in early February, thought it was the flu which she had gotten vaccinated for, symptoms in hindsight sure sound like Covid.
