PHE says it has spotted 53 cases of ‘Mu’ Covid variant in UK
Daily Mail says more than 50 Britons have been infected with the ‘Mu’ Covid variant which experts fear blunts the effect of vaccines and is already spreading in all but one US state.
Public Health England said it had detected 53 cases of the mutant strain after it first cropped up in the UK in May.
Scientists believe that while Mu is more transmissible than the original virus, it does not appear to be infectious enough to outcompete the Delta variant.
