Virus has mutated into 10 types, one dominant across regions: Study

The novel coronavirus, first reported in China in December 2019, has mutated into 10 different types and one of them — A2a — has nearly replaced all the others to become dominant across geographical regions, says a global study by an Indian institute. The A2a mutation is highly efficient in entering human lung cells in larger numbers; more efficient than SARS-CoV.
