The Lambda variant, also known as lineage C.37, is a variant of SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19. [1] It was first detected in Peru in August 2020. [2] On 14 June 2021, the World Health Organization (WHO) named it Lambda variant [1] and designated it …

2021年7月22日 · The lambda variant carries a number of mutations with suspected implications, such as potential increased transmissibility or possible increased resistance to neutralizing antibodies, the WHO...

2021年8月7日 · Genomic sequencing has identified 1,060 cases of Covid-19 caused by the Lambda variant in the United States so far, according to the independent data-sharing initiative GISAID.

2021年9月2日 · The lambda variant is not listed as a variant of interest by the CDC, but it is listed by WHO. So far, the “variant of interest” has been detected in 29 countries, and it may spread more ...

2022年1月1日 · The Lambda variant (also known as the C.37 lineage) was classified as a VOI on June 14, 2021 and has spread in South American countries such as Peru, Chile, Argentina, and Ecuador .

2021年7月22日 · The WHO classified lambda last month as a global "variant of interest" — a step below variant of concern. That means it exhibits genetic changes suspected of affecting its transmissibility and disease severity and has been identified as causing significant community transmission or multiple COVID-19 clusters.

2021年7月21日 · Preliminary data on the Lambda spike protein suggests it has increased infectivity, meaning it’s more easily able to infect cells than the original Wuhan virus and the Alpha and Gamma variants.

2021年10月4日 · Initial genetic analyses have shown that the Lambda variant has seven mutations in the spike protein, like the preceding variants. These mutations include G75V, T76I, del247/253, L452Q, F490S, D614G, and T859N with phenotypic implications, including potentially increased transmissibility or potentially high resistance to neutralizing antibodies ...

2021年7月23日 · Lambda coronavirus variant - CSIRO: The Lambda variant has an eclectic set of mutations, many of which appear to be immune evasions — that is, allowing the virus to evade a person’s immune response.

2021年7月27日 · Lambda is currently the dominant variant in the Andean nation, which has the highest per capita coronavirus death rate in the world, while it has also spread to at least 28 other countries ...
