The more viruses that exist in the world, the greater the chance that one will evolve a dangerous mutation.In this video, we explain what the new variants actually are, how they arise and spread, and what they could mean for the future of our ability to vaccinate ourselves against the virus.

The virus that causes COVID-19 is mutating and spreading around the world. It's led to more contagious variants, including one that's caused an unprecedented spike in cases in the UK. Vaccine roll-outs are in full swing but will they still work?

New mutations have seen the virus spread like wildfire in parts of the world. Over a year after the virus was first reported, there are now a large number of strains. Some, like the variants detected in the UK and South Africa, seem to be spreading much faster. Each new infection opens the door to unknown variants which threaten to undo the progress that has been made in the fight against the pandemic. The big question is: will the existing vaccines still work?

South African scientists are downplaying the danger of a new Covid-19 variant identified in the country towards the end of 2020. Covid-19 501.V2 has been found in all of the country's nine provinces and has led to several countries banning flights from South Africa. The variant has been associated with a higher viral load, leading some scientists to believe it is more transmissible and possibly a major contributing factor in the surge in infections around the globe. However the government & leading scientists are blaming the current surge in infections to a lack of adherence to coronavirus containment measures and "superspreader" events during the festive period.

Dr. Bette Korber's new study suggesting a more transmissible form of SARS-CoV-2 is emerging due to mutations of the Spike (S) protein. Her findings have important implications for SARS-CoV-2 transmission, pathogenesis and immune interventions, and have been widely and sometimes not accurately reported in the press. In this Global COVID Lab Meeting Dr. Bette Korber presents her most important conclusions.

Hope is mounting as COVID-19 vaccines are deployed, but our optimism is tempered by the arrival of new viral strains that are more contagious and possibly vaccine resistant. In this webinar, virologist Paul Bieniasz and President Richard P. Lifton addressed critical questions about SARS-CoV-2 variants, such as "Why are variants suddenly appearing almost simultaneously, but thousands of miles apart?" and "Can lab research predict the types of variants that will emerge?"

Jesse Bloom, an HHMI Investigator and associate professor in the Basic Sciences Division and in the Public Health Sciences Division at Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center. He uses computational biology and real-world data to build evolutionary models and examine different scales of viral evolution, from evolution within a single host to evolution on a global scale.
