Throughout the pandemic, the coronavirus has spawned a multitude of mutations: from the once-dominant Alpha variant to the still-raging Delta strain.
But with California and the country still in the grips of another COVID-19 surge, a new alphabetized entry Lambda has been raising fresh questions about whether it, too, might feature characteristics that could trigger dangerous shifts in the dynamic pandemic landscape.
Lambda, which was first identified in Peru, is worth watching because "it has had massive spread in South America," according to Dr. Benjamin Pinsky, director of the Clinical Virology Laboratory at Stanford University.
"But we don't know at the moment whether this will be something that will supplant Delta," he said in an interview.
Anyone with a brain could see this coming. They tried in a couple of months ago, but Delta showed up first. Now they're back to Lambda again.
"If you will not fight for right when you can easily win without blood shed; if you will not fight when your victory is sure and not too costly; you may come to the moment when you will have to fight with all the odds against you and only a precarious chance of survival. There may even be a worse case. You may have to fight when there is no hope of victory, because it is better to perish than to live as slaves." - Sir Winston Churchill
