- weaksauce 6y agoThe Strain that was seen in ny was more deadly than the strain seen on the west coast. And I’m not sure how many others are out there.
- xyhopguy 6y agothey have a different lineage, but as I stated previously, no major functional mutations were observed.
- arcticbull 6y agoWe don't yet know why (or even if) more people died in New York than on the west coast, per capita. We certainly cannot yet attribute it to a different strain.
- christkv 6y agoYou want to use the word isolate. The SARS2 virus is a strain of the original SARS virus I think
- sanxiyn 6y agoWe haven't confirmed functional mutations. One of currently known mutations (D614G being a prime suspect) can be functional and we can't rule out the possibility.
