BY A STAFF REPORTER: Maharashtra Health Minister Rajesh Tope talks about XE variant. He said, "As per info, the 'XE' variant is 10% more infectious than the Omicron variant which is like flu. We'll talk more about it in detail after getting a report; haven't received a confirmatory report from the Centre or NIB, so Maharashtra's health dept doesn't confirm it. The health dept has not arrived on any confirmation on the 'XE' variant as there's no NIB (National Institute of Biologicals) report yet. There's no need to panic."
