There’s a warning about a new COVID variant called FLiRT.
The new strains are sub variants of the omicron variant.
The new FLiRT variant has been detected in wastewater surveillance, according to data from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.
From April 14 through April 27, the variant makes up about 25% of the cases in the United States, according to the CDC. That makes it the new dominant variant in the country.
