Omixon and SeqOnce Biosciences announce the launch of a new extension to the AzureSeq One-Step Universal RT-qPCR kit for the detection of the novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 N501Y variant.
New research suggests that Pfizer/BioNTech’s mRNA Covid-19 vaccine, BNT162b2, protects against two variants of SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes Covid-19, that have emerged in the UK and South Africa.
The faster spreading coronavirus strain first detected in the UK is unlikely to make vaccines less effective as of now but the preventives may need to be appropriately altered if more mutations occur over time, say scientists.
