News Sites Feature Rajnarayanan in COVID-19 Coverage

As seen in Becker’s Hospital Review and MedPage Today, Rajendram Rajnarayanan, Ph.D., assistant dean of research and associate professor at NYITCOM-Arkansas, shared insight on EU.1.1, a new SARS-CoV-2 subvariant that the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention began tracking this week. Rajnarayanan, who manages a COVID-19 variant database, tells Becker’s Hospital Review that while the new subvariant contains several spike protein mutations that make it more transmissible than its predecessor, subvariant XBB.1.5, “it doesn’t have any advantage over other circulating lineages right now.”
