[A mutation of the Kent variant detected in some
samples could help the virus evade the immune
system, scientists have found.

The mutation, which has been labelled E484K,
has also been found in the South Africa variant
of the coronavirus.
It was found in 11 samples of some
200,000 that have been sequenced.

SkyNews science correspondent Thomas Moore said it
was a "worrying development" as it could mean
those previously infected could be re-infected
and could reduce the effectiveness of COVID vaccines.]
