RE: What happened to Beta and Gamma ???
I think...
Alpha is the UK Variant ( the first variant discovered )
Beta is the South African variant
Gamma is the Brazilian Manaus variant
Delta is the Indian variant
They use the Greek Alphabets to avoid stigmatizing countries ( as in “The China Virus” ).
I just hope and pray there will be no more variants. Worse case is we run out of Greek alphabets....
so one or more of the smug vaccinated passengers on the ships for the cruises from US ports in July could be carrying one or more of these variants ...
