The National Statistics Office (ONS) in the UK recorded that 62% of the additional Covid-19 cases in London on December 9, 2020, were infected with a new variant called B117. This proportion was the highest among other regions in the UK.

Besides London, the proportion of new B117 cases reached 59% in eastern England and 43% in the southeast. Meanwhile, the figures were relatively smaller in Yorkshire (5%) and the West Midlands (11%).

This new variant is considered 70% more transmissible than the common coronavirus. However, there is no evidence yet whether this variant is more deadly or affects the vaccines and treatments that have been carried out so far.
