SAN FRANCISCO (KGO) There are multiple COVID-19 variants circulating the Bay Area, making it harder for this pandemic to be under control.
ABC7 News reporter Luz Pena got an exclusive look at a UCSF lab where scientists are studying the mutated genes of the COVID-19 variants, hoping to figure out the best drugs to kill it. We were the first lab in the world back about a year ago to clone each of these genes, said Dr. Nevan Krogan, director of UCSF s Department of Quantitative Biosciences Institute.
