Health experts are raising the alarm against a new variant of the devastating Omicron virus.

Sources from local media outlets claim the strain dubbed Arcturus is not only increasing cases and disease quickly but it’s also picked up the pace in terms of taking on mutations that increase cases and disease at a faster pace than normal.

The new virus of COVID-19 has been seen wreaking havoc in places like India where reports spoke about at least 7000 people getting infected yesterday.

Now, alarm bells are ringing across the UK as experts feel it has been in the UK for already a month.

It was first detected in the United Kingdom last month and now, the country has already recorded at least 50 more cases.

The news is really shocking as India is really on high alert. All hospitals are exercising great warning against the variant and some states in the country are making sure that the mandatory mask rule is still in place.

The exponential rate at which the growth of the virus is taking place is just alarming for many individuals and many fear that the spread is going to have devastating impacts.

Health experts are already calling Arcturus the newest and most dangerous variant of the COVID-19 strain because of how contagious it really is.

Without a doubt, the rise in cases is definitely a huge concern for obvious reasons. But one thing is for sure. Many people feel it’s still not up to the mark that we saw in 2021 when the pandemic was at its peak.

The United Kingdom’s health and security agency says the variant is in the UK and citizens need to be made more aware of what is taking place before it’s too late.

“We cannot afford another pandemic or crisis of that sort so why not keep it under control now”- another health expert warned.
