Healthcare workers in NSW are currently treating 14 people infected by mutant strains of the coronavirus, officials have revealed. Because of its ample opportunity to spread globally the coronavirus has mutated into new, more contagious strains in several countries, including the UK and South Africa. Although those strains haven’t been proven to be more deadly, they’re believed to be more transmissible. The UK strain first entered Australia last month via an overseas passenger, and since then there have been a total of 18 cases associated with mutant strains in NSW, the state’s deputy chief health officer Jeremy McAnulty said. Of those infected people, 14 are still being treated in special health accommodation.
