Abstract
The newly emerged corona virus is in its highest peak of action and various unseen forms of the same are being
identified, which can transmit and spread the disease in a higher pace than the earlier discovered one. There are
numerous alternatives of the SARS COV-2 that differ from each other by at a minimum of one alteration. Many of
these variants soon gets extinguished while some others remain longer, spread fast, procure further mutations and
undergo variation to a new alternant form. This paper incorporates details about these newly identified variants of
SARS COV-2 in different nooks of the world. In addition, the association of blood type with SARS COV-2 and the risk
factors related to this has also been addressed. People having blood group ‘O’ are a bit more resistant and have
comparatively a higher degree of tolerance towards the attack of novel corona virus, on the other hand those having
‘A’ blood type are typically more susceptible to the viral attack.
