The European Medicines Agency (EMA) said it needed more details to see if the strain, which has "numerous mutations," could evade the current four jabs authorized for the bloc. "We are closely monitoring the newly emerged B.1.1.529 variant which presents numerous mutations in the Covid-19 spike protein," the Amsterdam-based EMA said in a statement to Agence France-Presse. "Current information is insufficient to determine if this variant is going to spread significantly and to what extent it may evade the immunity received with vaccines." It added: "EMA considers it premature at the moment to foresee the need of an adapted vaccine with a different composition in order to tackle this emerging variant." The EU has reacted with concern to news of the new strain, proposing that member states stop all flights to and from southern African where it was first discovered.

LONDON: The British scientist who led the research underpinning AstraZenecas coronavirus jab said Saturday a new vaccine could be developed against the emerging Omicron variant very rapidly if needed.

With each passing hour, new restrictions were being slapped on travel from countries in southern Africa as the world scurried Saturday to contain a new variant of the coronavirus that has the potential to be more resistant to the protection offered by vaccines. A host of countries, including Australia, Brazil, Canada Iran, Japan, Thailand and the United States, joined others, including the European Union and the U.K. in impose restrictions on southern African countries in response to warnings over the transmissability of the new variant against the advice of the World Health Organization. Despite the shutdown of flights, there was increasing evidence that the variant is already spreading. Cases have been reported in travelers in Belgium, Israel and Hong Kong, and Germany also has a probable case. Dutch authorities are checking for the new variant after 61 passengers on two flights from South Africa tested positive for COVID-19. The global health body has named the new variant omicron, labeling it a variant of concern because of its high number of mutations and some early evidence that it carries a higher degree of infection than other variants.

Pharmaceutical giants simultaneously announced work on developing a vaccine that will prevent complications from the dangerous new omicron coronavirus strain.
