Damn, just as many Americans are going through the decision to take a Covid-19 vaccine or not, a new mutant strain has been found in the UK and now it has made its way to the United States.
The potentially more dangerous COVID-19 mutant strain that has set off alarm bells in Europe has been identified in the U.S.
On Tuesday, Colorado governor Jared Polis announced that the first case of the B.1.1.7. variant had been discovered in his state.
It is believed to be the first confirmed mutant coronavirus report in the U.S.
“There is a lot we don’t know about this new COVID-19 variant, but scientists in the United Kingdom are warning the world that it is significantly more contagious,” stated Polis on Twitter. “The health and safety of Coloradans is our top priority and we will closely monitor this case, as well as all COVID-19 indicators, very closely.”
“Does it make someone more ill? Is it more serious virus in the sense of virulence? And the answer is, it doesn’t appear to be that way,” said Fauci.
Things are getting scary. Stay safe and wear a mask.
