The United States has lately seen an alarming rise in COVID-19 cases linked to a new variant, which has become the third-most common strain of the summer. The new XFG variant, colloquially known as “Stratus,” is rapidly spreading across the US. This variant has also been found in many European countries.

Variant XFG was first detected in Southeast Asia in January. According to a report by USA Today, the strain accounted for less than 0 per cent of cases in the US until May.
