Amid the increase in COVID-19 cases in many states of India, four new variants have been found in the country. ICMR Director Dr. Rajiv Bahl said that the variants sequenced from South and West India are of LF.7, XFG, JN.1 and NB.1.8.1 series. Samples are being taken from other places and sequenced so that new variants can be investigated. The cases are not very serious and people should not worry, just be cautious. The World Health Organization (WHO) has also not considered them worrisome. However, it has been categorized as a variant kept under surveillance. This variant is seen in the increasing cases of Kovid in other countries of Asia including China. Spike protein mutations like A435S, V445H, and T478I of NB.1.8.1 spread faster than other variants. They are also not affected by the immunity formed against Kovid. The JN.1 variant of Kovid is the most common in India. This variant is found in more than half of the samples in testing. After this, cases of BA.2 (26 percent) and Omicron sublineage (20 percent) variants are also found. JN.1 variant weakens immunity
JN.1 is a strain of Omicron’s BA2.86. It was first seen in August 2023. In December 2023, WHO declared it a ‘variant of interest’. It has about 30 mutations, which weaken immunity. According to Johns Hopkins University in the US, JN.1 spreads more easily than other variants, but it is not very serious. It remains the most common variant in many parts of the world. Symptoms of the JN.1 variant can last from a few days to weeks. If your symptoms persist for a long time, you may have long-term COVID. This is a condition in which some symptoms of COVID-19 persist even after recovery. ————————————————— Read these news related to Corona too… 20 lakh increase in Corona deaths in the year 2021, revealed in government report; Number of deaths due to COVID-Heart Disease increased at double the rate this year.
