Answer

How dangerous is the K variant flu wave in Mallorca right now?

The K variant is spreading earlier and faster than in previous flu seasons, which raises the pressure on Mallorca’s health services. It does not automatically mean more severe illness for every case, but faster spread means more people are sick at the same time and hospitals can fill up more quickly.
