A new strain of Covid, known as the Stratus strain, is spreading in the UK and is resistant to immunity, accounting for 30% of Covid cases. Dr Alex Allen from the UK Health Security Agency stated that monitoring of all Covid strains is ongoing. The Stratus strain has two variants, XFG and XFG.3, with XFG.3 being more prevalent. However, there is no evidence to suggest that these variants are more severe or vaccine-resistant. Symptoms of the Stratus strain include hoarseness. Some experts warn of a potential spike in infection rates due to waning immunity and reduced vaccine uptake.
