  Keep Variants at Bay. Get Vaccinated Today. ; The virus that causes COVID-19 is constantly changing through mutation, leading to new variants, including ones classified as variants of concern (VOCs). VOCs have the potential to spread more easily and quickly than other variants, which could lead to more cases of COVID-19. A recent CDC study found that the circulation of SARS-CoV-2 variants in the United States changed rapidly from December 2020 to May 2021, demonstrating how quickly a new variant can emerge, spread, and become the dominant strain.
