<div class="text-justify"> Mutation is more or less responsible for all the variation we see before us. Mutations are changes in DNA sequences. They occur in the genome of all living things, including viruses. Some mutations can be lethal, others are helpful while some are unnoticeable because they donβt cause any significant changes in the organismβs phenotype. <center> ![covid-19-6346685_1920.jpg](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmdiZXZqKuh2fy637TzjTmGbMv7QeWdK3wEewpvn7CHg8f/covid-19-6346685_1920.jpg) </center> [S](https://pixabay.com/illustrations/covid-19-coronavirus-delta-variant-6346685/) Viruses, particularly RNA viruses like the one that causes COVID-19, mutates very quickly. This is because they are not as good at proofreading their own genes after copying them as other organisms are. This leaves room for a whole lot of mutation. ![wert.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmPNftLA64k9MJx1PuvCfui2EW4cCLqdMWJb53BrbRURjg/wert.png) Because of this phenomenon, there are many variants of the COVID-19 virus but only four Variants of Concern (alpha, beta, and gamma and delta variants). A variant may be classified as a Variant of Concern if it is more: β’ transmissible β’ virulent β’ resilient to public health and social measures or available diagnostics, vaccines, therapeutics ![wert.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmPNftLA64k9MJx1PuvCfui2EW4cCLqdMWJb53BrbRURjg/wert.png) The most recent variant is the delta variant which was first isolated in India in October 2020. It is highly transmissible and as of now, it has been reported in 96 countries, including Ghana. It is important that we help prevent this variant from spreading by observing all COVID-19 protocols and getting vaccinated! People who are vaccinated are less likely to end up in the hospital because of the disease. **Symptoms include:** Sore throat Aching muscles Diarrhea Vomiting Blocked/runny nose Tired and unwell Long-lasting headaches etc ![wert.png](https://cdn.steemitimages.com/DQmPNftLA64k9MJx1PuvCfui2EW4cCLqdMWJb53BrbRURjg/wert.png) Make it a date to get tested if you are experiencing any of these symptoms. Letβs remember that one reason why the virus continues to mutate is that more people continue to get infected by it (viruses can only multiply when theyβve infected a host)! Stay safe, wear a mask, and get vaccinated! <center> **Thank you for reading.** </center> </div>
