A new SARS-CoV-2 variant, NB.1.8.1, is spreading globally but poses a low risk to the public, according to the World Health Organization. The variant shows a higher rate of infection but no evidence of increased severity or deaths. The symptoms are similar to past variants, and the current vaccine is recommended, though its effectiveness against NB.1.8.1 is unknown.
