Covid-19 sub-variant JN.1: Why are all Covid variants detected in December? | Know all | Oneindia

Covid-19 saw three big mutations in December of 2020: Alpha (B.1.1.7), Beta (B.1.351), and Gamma (P.1).

A year later, in December 2021 the Omicron variant sent the world back into their homes just months after lockdowns began to ease.

The next year, in December of 2022, while there was no emergence of a new major variant, we saw the rise of subvariants such as BA.2 and BA.5, all classified within the Omicron branch of the coronavirus.

And now we have the JN.1 variant, which also belongs to the Omicron lineage.

Now, the question arises: why December?

Cure or Threat? Wuhan Lab's New Intranasal Vaccine Sparks Fears of Another Covid-like Crisis

A new intranasal vaccine developed by researchers at the Wuhan lab has recently been unveiled, promising a novel approach to combating infectious diseases. However, this breakthrough has also sparked significant controversy and concern. While the vaccine’s potential to offer a more accessible and efficient method of vaccination is hailed as a major advancement, its origins and the circumstances surrounding its development are raising alarms about a possible new health crisis. Critics worry that the technology used in this vaccine could inadvertently lead to another pandemic-like scenario if not carefully monitored. As the world cautiously watches, the vaccine's rollout is stirring a heated debate about safety, preparedness, and the ethical implications of such advanced biological research. #IntranasalVaccine #WuhanLab #CovidCrisis #HealthFears #VaccineDebate #PandemicRisk #BioResearch #VaccineDevelopment #PublicHealth #InfectiousDiseases #SafetyConcerns #GlobalHealth #VaccineInnovation #EthicalIssues #HealthSecurity ~HT.97~PR.152~
