Several states have warned of another COVID wave driven by a new variant called JN.1.

New South Wales chief health officer says the variant is partially to blame for the state's "highest level of COVID in a year", while Victoria's health department says the variant has contributed to an "increase in community transmissions along with hospitalisations of COVID cases".

It directly evolved from BA.2.86, the so-called Pirola variant that emerged in August 2023. Research published in the Lancet earlier this month found JN.1 was "significantly" more infectious than BA.2.86.

"These results suggest that JN.1 is one of the most immune-evading variants to date," the researchers from the University of Tokyo wrote.

And while that conclusion was reached after looking at JN.1 in a lab, genomic sequencing data shows the mutation has had real-world consequences.

JN.1 has quickly become dominant in many of the countries it's been detected in; despite only emerging in late 2023, the variant is now responsible for more than half the COVID cases in the United Kingdom, the United States, France, Denmark, and Singapore.
