A new variant of covid-19, nicknamed ‘Frankenstein’ and scientifically known as Stratus (XFG or XFG.3), has begun to circulate in countries of South America, while in Europe it drives a surge of contagion in the middle of the summer.
In recent weeks Spain and other European countries recorded a resurgence of cases of coronavirus. Many of them would be of a new variant: SARS-CoV-2: Stratus, also called by specialists as a Frankenstein variant because of its hybrid origin.
