Scientists have warned that a "more contagious" variant of Covid-19, dubbed XEC, is spreading more rapidly across Europe and could soon become the dominant strain.

Scientists at the institute have developed a new nanovaccine that shows promise in providing universal protection against all major Covid-19 variants.

According to the Infectious Diseases Society Of America (IDSA), the proportion of illnesses caused by KP.2 is rapidly increasing. The other FLiRT variant, KP 1.1 is also circulating in the US.

Despite being vaccinated, his compromised immune system couldn't fully fend off the virus, leading to severe complications.

Daily COVID-19 cases in India have been declining over the past few weeks - down from over 750 on December 22 to just 269 on Tuesday, and the number of active cases is now only 2,556, the government said Wednesday.

The emergence of 34 COVID-19 cases of the JN.1 variant has sounded an alarm in Karnataka, a neighbouring state of Kerala that has been accounting for a big chunk of the new infections reported over the past week.

Kerala Health Minister Veena George on Friday reacted to the new COVID-19 sub-variant JN.1 and said that there is "nothing to worry" about and everything is "under control."

Amid the rising new JN.1 Covid-19 variant scare, former World Health Organisation (WHO) chief scientist Dr Soumya Swaminathan asserted that there is no need to panic currently as it is a variant of interest and not of concern.

The JN.1 sub variant of COVID-19 was found in 19 samples that were tested over a period of time, but these are old cases and are no longer active, a top health official said on Thursday.
