    WHO says Covid is mutating at slower rate than flu as new strain in U.K. appears more contagious

    KEY POINTS
    • World Health Organization officials said the coronavirus is mutating "at a much slower rate" than seasonal influenza.
    • Officials in the U.K. announced this weekend that a new mutation of the virus is allowing it to spread more easily.
    • Seasonal influenza mutates so often that scientists have to regularly develop new vaccines to inoculate the population against the virus every year.

    CDC says new Covid strain in UK could already be circulating undetected in U.S


    KEY POINTS
    • The new coronavirus strain that was first detected in the United Kingdom could already be in the United States, the CDC said Tuesday.
    • The agency said it doesn't know why the new strain of the virus emerged, but it could have been "by chance alone."
    • "Alternatively, it may be emerging because it is better fit to spread in humans," the CDC said.
