Mathematical model of SARS-CoV-2 UK variant suggests it could be 43–90% more transmissible

A team of researchers led by a group at the Centre for Mathematical Modelling of Infectious Diseases, London School of Hygiene and Tropical Medicine, has found evidence suggesting that the U.K. variant of the SARS-CoV-2 virus could be 43 to 90% more transmissible than the original virus. In their study, published in the journal Science, the group used models to study the transmissibility of various variants of the SARS-CoV-2 virus.
