In short:
Australia has recorded its first cases of the XEC COVID-19 variant that has been spreading in Europe this year.
The mutation is a “recombinant” variant that is a mix of two previous Omicron subvariants called KS 1.1 and KP 3.3.
What’s next?
An infectious disease expert says the strain has the hallmarks of something that could lead to a “summer wave” of infections.
