"As we enter the colder months in Australia, COVID is making headlines again,
this time due to the emergence of a new variant: NB.1.8.1.

Last week, the World Health Organization designated NB.1.8.1 as a “variant
under monitoring”, owing to its growing global spread and some notable
characteristics which could set it apart from earlier variants.

So what do you need to know about this new variant?"
