These changes can be useful because they leave a signature in the virus's genetic code that allows us to trace how the virus has spread from one person to another.
But the new variant detected in the UK is more transmissible than the original virus that was dominant in 2020. That means it spreads more easily from one person to another.
The good news is it does not cause more severe illness or have a higher fatality rate than the original variant. Evidence so far suggests vaccines will still be effective against it.
But the bad news is, because it spreads more easily, it has the potential to infect many more people, causing more hospitalisations and deaths as a result.
They've isolated mutations of a virus they've yet to provide solid evidence of legitimate isolation, with data to back it up?
