The variant, VUI-21MAY-01, is currently being investigated by the government health body.

In a statement, external PHE said: "There have been 49 cases of VUI-21MAY-01 across the country to date, mainly concentrated in Yorkshire and the Humber.

"Four more cases of the Variant of Concern VOC-202101/02, also known as P.1, have been identified in England – 3 in South Gloucestershire and one in Bradford, West Yorkshire."

There's currently no evidence the variant causes more severe illness or that the vaccines wouldn't work against it, officials say.

A spokesperson for PHE said: "All appropriate public health interventions are being undertaken, including additional contact tracing and targeted testing.

"Where cases have been identified, additional follow-up of cases, testing of contacts and targeted case finding will limit the spread of variants."

An update from PHE is expected later today.
