O que é a nova variante XEC da Covid?

September 17, 2024 - As pessoas começaram a apanhar uma variante da Covid potencialmente mais contagiosa, denominada XEC, que pode em breve tornar-se a estirpe dominante, segundo os cientistas.

Identified in Germany, in June, cases of the XEC variant have since emerged in the UK, U.S., Denmark and several other countries.

It has some new mutations that might help it spread this autumn, although vaccines should still help prevent severe cases, experts say.
