The Delta variant of Covid-19 continues to dominate in Riverside County but new variants are emerging, including the Lambda variant, which is now in California.
Experts say Lambda could be more infectious and resistant to vaccines than the initial coronavirus strain, but it isn't yet called a "variant of concern" in the U.S. or by the World Health Organization.
Dr. Peter Chin-Hong, an infectious disease specialist at University of California San Francisco, said the Lambda mutation is predominant in South America right now, making up 80 to 90 percent of new cases in Peru – but it's spreading in the Golden State now too.
"The Lambda variant is definitely here, but the Delta variant is keeping it under wraps," Chin-Hong said. "It's potentially more vaccine-evasive as well as transmissible but not as transmissible as Delta."
Dr. Chin-Hong said the aggressive Delta variant is overtaking other variants. Delta makes up more than 90 percent of new cases in the state and around the country.
Wuhan Labs is getting ready for the next release, in time for the holiday season. I guess it’s being beta tested right now on prisoners.
Lambda, Lambda, Lambda!
Marcia Marcia Marcia?
The covid shot are starting to sound a lot like Windows.
I sprinkled lamdas on my cereal this morning for the anti-oxidants. I think it was lambdas or wheat germ or something else.
I am guessing they will skip the Xi variant
lamdas good with mint jelly.
If homosexuals, who are prone to all sorts of diseases (underlying conditions leading to death) to the point that their lives are measurably shortened, especially if they’re the sort called bug chasers, aren’t dying like flies then it can’t be all that bad.
The boogy man is here too.
And the goofy monster.
Be scared. Hide inside.
Vote Conservative!
That seems all too likely.
The lambda will be a problem only in Texas and Florida.
Cause for concern?
I’m gonna go with NO.
What was the name of the last variant?
No more concern than alpha and delta.. I expect we’ll get through the entire Greek alphabet.
No.
IMO, it’s just cover for bad vax reactions.
Far easier to keep pushing the vax if it isn’t revealed that they are responsible for all the hospitalizations.
Yes, very filling. The only thing is, it makes your ears grow to a point at the top.
