Özet

COVID-19 that was originating from Wuhan in China has then evolved into various variants, which are specificto regions. Interestingly, COVID-19 highlights that the first strain travelled majorly to the Western Region andwas possibly transforming during endemic transmission. There are approximately 93 mutations acquired bythe novel virus, and the multiple strains are now grouped into three different clusters. This outbreak has led toa global pandemic never seen for more than a century. This viewpoint is focused on mutation hotspots, casefatalities in most affected nations, impacts of a cytokine storm, and influencing factors that may have amplifiedthe pandemic, to culminate with a racial disparity in both the United States and the United Kingdom Leadership at the highest level of government is important to quickly averting the worst outcome of this pandemic asevident from other countries.
