Breaking Update: Here’s a clear explanation of the latest developments related to Breaking News:New Cicada Covid-19 subvariant detected: Should you worry?– What Just Happened and why it matters right now.
One reason to be concerned about the Cicada Virus is that it has a large number of mutations in its Spike protein (50+) and over 70 mutations compared to the Wuhan strain of the virus. This raises questions about how this variant might behave (e.g., how contagious it will be), and whether this variant can evade the immune response from vaccines or natural immunity.
Experts are observing its slow increase in several different countries. Based on initial data and wastewater surveillance, some regions show that it appears to be increasing in prevalence. However, there is no current evidence that it causes a more severe illness than before.
