Health experts have warned of a "variant soup" of Covid strains that are spreading across Europe, Australia and China. The World Health Organisation (WHO) has warned that Omicron's "grandchildren" are now filling the gaps where the previous variant was once rampant.
A health specialist raised the fears, according to the Express, as the UK sees Covid cases rise in late 2022 and now Australian infectious disease specialist Dr Paul Griffin said the world must now tackle the various offspring of Omicron as Covid remains ever-present in most countries.
He warned viewers on the Morning show sunrise to take their updated vaccines as a series of new variants surge across the planet. The several variants he was "watching closely" were emerging strains XBB and BQ.
