Covid Arcturus has been spreading across the UK this year and experts have created a new map which shows where all the hotspots are.
The new variant, also known as Covid XBB.1.16, has rapidly spread globally and has a big case increase in India where they have introduced face mask rules.
The Mirror reports that it has recently been confirmed that five Brits have died due to the Covid Arcturus variant. Up until April 17 there were 120 documented cases of Arcturus, however, this figure has since risen to at least 135 but the true figure is likely much higher.
