A more contagious coronavirus variant is spreading across the US. Can vaccines stop it?
CNN
A new, more contagious and potentially more deadly Covid-19 variant called B.1.1.7 is spreading across the US. But the currently authorized vaccines should be able to stop it.
The B.1.1.7 variant, first spotted in the UK, is not only more easily transmitted, but it also appears to be more deadly. Dr. Anthony Fauci warned about it Friday in a White House coronavirus update. It was first spotted in Colorado at the end of December, said Fauci, the director of the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases and the chief medical adviser to President Biden.More Related News
