Authorities in at least two Australian states have raised concerns about a new coronavirus subvariant which has reared its head amid a surge in COVID-related hospital admissions. The number of Queenslanders in hospital with a COVID-19 infection has swelled to 146, twice what it was just two weeks ago.
Growing fears about new COVID sub-variant In South Australia, COVID-related hospitalisations have tripled to more than 60. Queensland Health said the spike in virus cases was for the most part due to low booster rates in elderly people and “possibly” the emergence of COVID subvariant BA.2.86, nicknamed Pirola. “We are seeing a clear increase in COVID-19 transmission in Queensland at the moment,” Chief Health Officer Dr John Gerrard said.
