February 12, 2021: According to the head of U.K.’s genetic surveillance program, a new coronavirus variant first found in the U.K., has since been identified in over 80 countries, could become the dominant form of the virus worldwide,
“The new variant has swept the country, and it’s going to sweep the world, in all probability,” Professor Sharon Peacock, director of the Covid-19 Genomics U.K. Consortium, says.
Peacock heads up was created in April 2020 and brings together experts and institutes to collect, sequence, and analyze genomes of the virus in response to U.K.’s pandemic. Till now, it has tracked the genetic history of more than 250,000 samples of the virus.
Viruses mutate all the time, but experts become concerned when a virus mutates to become more transmissible, as in this case. The higher infection rates in the U.K. are likely to lead to more hospitalizations and more deaths. As a result, containing it has become a priority.
The variant spread quickly in the southeast of England and London and has become the dominant strain in the U.K.
It’s challenging to know the exact origin of the mutation. Given the consortium’s work, it was likely to find new variants in the U.K. (other countries that have advanced genome sequencing of the virus, like Denmark and South Africa, have discovered variants too).
Peacock, a professor at the University of Cambridge, said that she believed the sequencing of coronavirus variants would be required for at least ten years.
According to Johns Hopkins University, there have been over 107 million coronavirus cases and over 2.3 million deaths around the world.

In an industry as competitive and fast-paced as Consumer Packaged Goods (CPG), standing out from the crowd requires innovation and adaptability. The cracks in the CPG supply chain were exposed long before the global pandemic struck, but the events of the past year only exacerbated the weaknesses.
Supply chain leaders, including VPs, often find themselves making bets with unknown financial consequences. Having started with largely infeasible plans generated by deterministic “one-number” planning systems, compounded by unexpected supply or demand disruptions, they are forced into last-minute adjustments to meet operational and financial goals.
Unsurprisingly, today’s supply chain faces numerous issues, including sustainability, technology, global economic and political instability, talent management, and supply chain resilience. Advanced forecasting algorithms and predictive analytics are used in supply chain management to help organizations of all sizes make better decisions by providing insights into what’s going on in their business at any given moment and predicting future trends.
Ensuring the right products are in the right place and at the right time is critical for companies also dealing with supply chain constraints and a high degree of variability. Uncertainty has become the name of the game and the only way to effectively optimize inventory through continuous, data-driven assessments, planning, and decision-making.
Food Huggers, a consumer brand that designs products to reduce waste at home, may be in an enviable position now but before they found Extensiv Order Manager, managing booming orders and staying on top of inventory was a huge operational challenge. The business has inventory spread across multiple geographically distributed warehouses, with orders received via multiple sales channels, including Shopify storefronts and Amazon.
