Resumen	The proportion of SARS-CoV-2 variants (501Y, B.1.1.7) among confirmed cases rapidly increases in Switzerland. The increase in the proportion of SARS-CoV-2 variants (501Y, B.1.1.7) in Geneva is around two weeks ahead of the rest of Switzerland. We estimate an increase in transmissibility of around 50% for the new SARS-CoV-2 variants (501Y, B.1.1.7). The findings underline the importance of efficient control measures in order to prevent an increase in SARS-CoV-2 incidence in Switzerland.
