India has also reported the first incidence of the Omicron subtype XBB-1.5 that is causing havoc in the US. Gujarat has been identified to witness the case, as per INSACOG findings. According to researchers, the increase of Covid cases in the US is caused by this subvariant. In comparison to other sub-variants, it is reported to be more transmissible. With the discovery of the first case of XBB-1.5 in Gujarat, the neighbouring state of Maharashtra has been placed on high alert.

The Maharashtra Health Department claims that every effort is being made to contain the infection. The entire genome is being sequenced. A virologist at Johns Hopkins University claims that the virus also has the ability to adhere to human body cells as a result of further alterations.
