The new SARS-CoV-2 virus varieties, more than five years after the announcement of the COVID-19 pandemic, are being shown regularly in Australia.
The latest LP.8.1 variable is spreading, representing approximately one in five cases with COVID-19 in New South Wales, according to SBS News.
He's become the third most dominant version of the state of New South Wales, followed by A2. Founded for the first time in July 2024, the LP8.1 is a descendant of Omikron, namely KP.1.1.3, a descendant of JN.1, a sub-varian who caused major waves of COVID infections worldwide at the end of 2023 and early 2024.
The World Health Organization (OBSH) has declared LP8.1 as a version under monitoring in January, due to its significant growth worldwide.
The global health agency has estimated that the additional public health risk posed by the LP.8.1 on a global scale is low. The symptoms of LP.8.1 do not seem to be heavier than those of the other variants that circulate, suggesting that the variant is unlikely to affect the course of pandemic./Periscopi/
