An expert has warned that there may be a number of ' Deltacrons ' in circulation across the globe.
Concerns were raised by epidemiologists earlier this month when virologists from L’Institut Pasteur in Paris submitted full genomic sequencing of a ‘Deltacron’ variant to GSAID, the international Covid database.
The strain, which is said to be hybrid of the Delta and Omicron variants of Covid, has been found in multiple countries - with some even identified in the UK.
