Health officials in California have detected a new COVID variant, Cicada, originating from South Africa, now present in over two dozen US states. Despite evading parts of our immune system, its not causing more severe symptoms or spreading faster than other strains. Early cases show typical COVID symptoms, with vulnerable individuals still at higher risk. Experts advise maintaining precautions like hand washing, staying home when sick, and getting vaccinated to reduce severe risks.
