New Covid variant BF.7 spreading rapidly and could be dominant within weeks

‘Another new Covid subvariant has been detected and is now spreading rapidly around the world – already making up a quarter of new cases in some countries. BF. 7, also known as BA. 5.2.1.7, is now making up 25% of cases in Belgium and 10% of cases in Denmark, France and Germany.
