Quick Glance: JN.1 Variant: Latest on Covid Developments
  • The JN.1 variant may be more transmissible, but does not cause more severe Covid cases.

  • Covid cases are on the rise, driven by the JN.1 variant, according to Dr. Mandy Cohen of the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

  • JN.1 accounts for about 21% of Covid cases in the US, up from 8% just two weeks ago, according to the CDC.

  • The World Health Organization has designated JN.1 as a 'variant of interest', indicating genetic changes that could enhance its spread.

Quick Glance: COVID-19: Rising Cases and Response
  • COVID-19 is spreading again: numbers are up, variants are circulating, boosters are being brought forward, and the government is planning surveillance.

  • A study by King's College London uses app data to predict infection rates.

  • There are no longer official estimates of COVID-19 rates among the UK population, making it difficult to get a reliable picture of the virus spread.

  • BA.2.86 is the most concerning variant since the emergence of Omicron, according to NHS officials.

Quick Glance: CDC director emphasizes importance of updated COVID booster shot amid increasing cases
  • The CDC recommended updated COVID booster shots for Americans aged 6 months and older due to rising cases and hospitalizations across the country.

  • In an interview with ABC News Live on Tuesday night, CDC Director Mandy Cohen stressed the importance of getting the updated shot and addressed safety concerns, stating that the shots have been studied 'more than any vaccine in history.'

  • The CDC recommends that everyone should get the updated COVID vaccine, and it will be available in doctor's offices and pharmacies across the country in the coming days.

  • The CDC director expressed concern that fewer than half of adults over 65 and only 1 in 5 Americans received the booster shot last fall.
