Archived: Two new variants of COVID-19 appear in Nebraska

by: The North Platte Bulletin - Feb. 27, 2021

The first known case of the United Kingdom variant of COVID-19 was reported Friday to a Douglas County woman in her 20s.

The variant, known as B.1.1.7 (B-117), has been found in 45 other states and is more easily transmitted than normal. Nevertheless, both Pfizer and Moderna vaccines have shown effectiveness against it, health officials say. The Johnson and Johnson vaccine, which is expected to be approved soon, has also been proven effective against B-117.
