The UK could soon see its highest-ever rate of Covid infections thanks to the new variant JN.1, according to experts.

Professor Christina Pagel, of University College London, said the rapid spread of the strain means we have yet to reach the peak of infection while Professor Steve Griffin said it could outstrip previous waves of infection.

She compared the current strain to the Omicron substrains BA.1 in December 2021 and BA.5 in January 2022 and said coronavirus cases will continue to surge for weeks

New figures show that overall numbers have soared over the Christmas and New Year period, with JN.1 subvariant emerging as the dominant strain in the last few weeks.
