Singapore has recorded at least one case of a Delta coronavirus subvariant, believed to be more contagious than the dominant strain currently circulating here.

In response to media queries by Yahoo News Singapore, the Ministry of Health (MOH) confirmed that one imported case was infected with the subvariant, also known as AY.4.2, but added that there is no evidence of spread to the community.

"AY.4.2 is not a new variant, but a subvariant of the Delta variant. While its effects are still being studied, AY.4.2 is currently expected to be similar to other Delta subvariants in terms of transmissibility and severity of illness," said the MOH.

The ministry did not elaborate on when the case's current status or when it was detected.

According to data aggregator site outbreak.info, one case with the AY.4.2 subvariant, yet to be considered a "variant of concern", was first detected in the city-state on 8 September.

The site extrapolates information from the Global Initiative on Sharing All Influenza Data (GISAID), the world's largest database of novel coronavirus genome sequences.

Deputy director of Taiwan Centers for Disease Control Luo Yi-jun had also made reference to the subvariant being present in Singapore during a press conference, according to a Central News Agency article published on 22 October.

Thanks to the vaccinated ones , 80+% of them, their body is the incubator of mutating the virus. We will see even stronger virus in times to come.
This is the outcome of having MMTF team consist of non-medical people.
I am ready to embrace such virus to train my unvaccinated immune system to be even stronger.

MOH trying so hard to spin this to dumb Sinkies.
Of course eventually this variant will spread among the local population because PAP opened the gates big and allow people in even without testing.
Now if in the future you're loved ones die because of this virus and you support PAP, then I will congratulate you ahead of time!

AY4.2 is Delta Plus. But when one such case has been detected here, Delta Plus magically evaporates from the news reports and the local presstitutes call it by an underwhelming, unassuming term... the subvariant. :rolleyes:


No cases of Delta Plus Covid-19 variant detected in Singapore​
