Another mutant form of Coronavirus discovered in Nigeria

 


Another mutant form of Coronavirus discovered in Nigeria

Another new variant of coronavirus has emerged in Nigeria, a leading public health official has said.

 

John Nkengasong, head of the Africa Centres for Disease Control and Prevention, revealed the existence of the new P681H strain on Thursday, Dec 24, saying it is different from the ones found recently in the UK and South Africa.

 

The mutant strain of coronavirus has emerged as Nigeria reports a surge in the cases of coronavirus.

 

Coronavirus variants emerge routinely as the virus spreads. About 4,000 variants of the deadly virus has been recorded to date, but those in the UK and South Africa have been widely reported because scientists believe they are significantly more infectious than previous strains. 

 

New variants can also affect the ability of coronavirus vaccines to fight the virus, though this is not thought to be the case with the UK or South African variant.

 

The Nigerian variant's potential effect on vaccines is so-far unclear. 

 

"Give us some time," Dr Nkengasong said. "It's still very early."

 

The Nigerian variant was found in two patient samples collected on August 3 and October 9 in southern Osun state, a preliminary report into the virus said.  

 

Unlike the variant seen in the UK, "we haven't observed such rapid rise of the lineage in Nigeria and do not have evidence to indicate that the P681H variant is contributing to increased transmission of the virus in Nigeria," the report added.
