I posted there were variants of concern in the US and India a few days ago.
However I forgot to mention Brazil - where the politics means that new variants are evolving all the time.

This is never going to end, is it? We've let loose a brand new, virulent corona virus across the world and it is going to be incubating and mutating for decades to come. Hopefully just a case of yearly jabs, along with the flu one. Perhaps they can use their new vaccine to tech to include one for the most common cold viruses as well, whilst they're at it.

Doom: Indian Double Mutant Covid
https://www.cnbc.com/2021/03/30/doub...ctor-says.html
The double mutation of a Covid-19 variant discovered in India is of grave concern — and could spread to other countries, according to Dr. Kavita Patel, a non-resident fellow at the Brookings Institution.
“It is something to watch very closely, and something that will not be limited to India. It is something we will likely see around the world as we have with other variants,” she told CNBC’s “Street Signs Asia” on Monday.
India’s health ministry said last week that a variant with two mutations — known as E484Q and L452R — was found in the country. The mutations are not new, but the variant in India carries both of them —something that has not been seen in other variants.
The mutations could make the virus more contagious and better at evading the body’s defenses.
