Researchers who looked into the original outbreak of the virus have discovered the new variants throughout the world.

The three variants, labelled A, B and C, are distinct but still closely related.

Variant A is the type most like the strain at the root of the outbreak – the type found in bats and pangolins.

The B strain is derived from A, separated by two mutations, and C is in then a ‘daughter’ of B, the research suggests.
