The Neocon coronavirus, which has a high death rate and transmission rate, is spreading through bats in South Africa, according to scientists from Wuhan, China.
Neocon is a virus linked to the Middle East Respiratory Syndrome, according to Business Insider (MERS COV).
Neocon has the potential to kill one out of every three people infected.
The virus was first discovered in a bat population and has since spread to other animals.
MERS-CoV and the COVID-19-causing SARS-CoV-2 are both present in the Neocon.
Antibodies that target both SARS-CoV-2, which produces COVID-19, and MERS-CoV can't halt Neocon, according to a new study that was released on preprint and hasn't been peer-reviewed.
According to Business Insider, researchers claimed of the virus, "Our investigations have revealed that current COVID-19 immunizations are unable to protect humans from the eventuality of infection induced by this virus."
Keep in mind that Neocon is not a brand-new virus. It was originally detected in the Middle Eastern nations in 2012 and 2015. In humans, it is strikingly similar to SARS-CoV-2 (the new coronavirus).
What's next: Scientists aren't sure what will happen with Neocon, or whether it will represent a hazard to people in the near future.
"Further research is needed to determine whether the virus detected in the study poses a risk to humans," the World Health Organization told Russian news agency TASS.
According to reports, the virus is just one mutation away from being a big threat to humanity.

The pandemic's highs (weight) and lows (mental health)
Neocon stands for new coronavirus, which is a misnomer because it has yet to be established as a SARs-Cov-2 type. The virus in concern was discovered in bats in South Africa and is quite similar to MERS. Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS) is an acronym for the Middle East Respiratory Syndrome. The virus was discovered in a study article produced by scientists in Wuhan, the pandemic's epicenter. The scientific article has yet to be peered evaluated, and further research and evaluation is required before any definite proofs of the virus's transmission to humans can be established.
Since the emergence of the novel coronavirus, three dominant COVID-19 variants have caused extensive infections and deaths around the world. While the kappa variation was responsible for the initial wave of the pandemic, the Delta variant of the virus dominated the second wave, which proved lethal. The virus has morphed into a more transmissible but less lethal form, thanks to Omicron bringing in the third wave.
In most countries around the world, the third wave is regarded to have peaked and is currently waning. However, there appears to be no relief in sight, since Wuhan scientists have apparently discovered a new viral strain in South African bats. According to Sputnik, a Russian news outlet, this virus known as Neocon was thought to have a high fatality and transmission rate. However, study into the subject is underway, and here's everything you need to know about it.
