Experts: Don’t panic about Lambda variant

Another COVID-19 variant has experts on high alert. 

The Lambda strain which was first detected in Peru last December has spread to more than 30 countries. It shares a mutation with the Delta variant which can make it more transmissible but Peruvian researchers say there’s no evidence that it’s the key cause of the country’s high death rate. 

Rianté Padayachee found out more about this variant and filed this report.
