Now it has come to light that the variant of Corona which has caused havoc in Singapore has also found cases in India. This has been revealed by the data of the Indian SARS CoV-2 Genomics Consortium (INSACOG), which is monitoring Corona cases in India. According to the data, 34 cases of Corona variant KP1 and 290 cases of KP2 have been reported in India.

According to sources associated with the Health Ministry, KP1 and KP2 are also sub-variants of the JN1 variant of Corona. However, patients infected with this variant have not yet shown serious symptoms of the disease and the number of patients admitted to hospital is also less. In such a situation, there is nothing to worry about. Health Ministry sources said that the process of mutation will continue to occur in these variants and this is also the nature of the coronavirus.
