Calum Semple, a professor of medicine at Liverpool University, said the new variant would ‘compete better than all other species’ because it has the evolutionary advantage of being able to spread more easily.
The strain – known as VUI-202012/01 – has already been confirmed in Denmark, Gibraltar, the Netherlands, Australia and Italy. Unconfirmed reports have also been confirmed on at least one case in Belgium.

‘Because the virus has an evolutionary advantage in spreading faster, it competes better than all other strains, so it does so naturally.
‘As immunity enters the wider community, then you begin to see more pressure on the virus and you are more likely to escape other changes.’
