COVID-19 Variants On The Rise, But Full Vaccination Can Help Stop Spread

According to the Centers for Disease Control, 69% of COVID-19 infections in Oklahoma s region are now caused by variant B117. More variants are on the rise, as well. We have not identified any new variants.but variants of interest have grown considerably, said Dr. Jennifer Clark of Oklahoma State University s Project ECHO.    Viruses change constantly through mutation, and a variant has one or more mutations that differentiate it from other variants. There are three classifications for variants: variants of interest, variants of concern, and variants of high consequence. While there are no variants of high consequence (meaning vaccine resistant) in circulation, Oklahoma State Department of Health s Chief Medical Officer Dr. Gitanjali Pai says there is evidence completing a full vaccine cycle can protect against variants.
