The ascendant Omicron subtype BA.5 may become New Zealand's dominant form of Covid-19 within the next fortnight. But already, there are early signs that another emerging Omicron subvariant may replace that. What are they and what do we know? Science reporter Jamie Morton explains.

Alpha, Beta, Delta, Omicron BA.2, BA.5 and now BA.2.75.

It might be hard for the rest of us to keep up, but to virologists, why new variants and subvariants like these arise and cause havoc is well understood.

As viruses spread, they replicate by copying their own genomes. In the process, they sometimes make mistakes - creating what we know better as mutations.
