Japan finds Covid variant in 3 people with no record of travel to UK
Citat:
Japanese doctors have detected a fast-spreading variant of the new coronavirus first discovered in Britain in three people who had not travelled there, the Health Ministry said on Monday.
The three, aged from their 20s to their 60s and living in Shizuoka prefecture, about 125 miles west of Tokyo, first had symptoms in early January, the ministry confirmed.
A health ministry official said the authorities are investigating how the three became infected, adding that there was no proof yet that the variant first detected in Britain was spreading in Shizuoka now, Reuters reports.
Japan has so far detected 45 cases of new variants of the virus that were first spotted in Britain, South Africa and Brazil, he said.
