So, we have a new variant of Covid-19! As many scientists have been saying since the beginning of this pandemic, this is to be expected and one of the main reasons that (even though we are vaccinated) we should keep transmission as low as possible. The more people that become infected the more probability there is of seeing a new variant that escapes the clutches of vaccine protection, taking us right back to the start (oh deep joy!). On a slightly geeky (or should I say Greeky) angle on this I wonder where the epsilon, zeta, eta, theta, iota, kappa and lambda variants went, clearly they didn't make the grade, variants of little interest? (I kinda feel sorry for them)
