The Corona virus Lambda variant was discovered in Peru in August 2020, per the WHO.

"It was first detected in Peru in August 2020." "First samples of the Lambda variant were detected in Peru in December 2020..."
Can't be both. Mwanner | Talk 20:10, 19 August 2021 (UTC)
One case was detected in Colima, Mexico.
"It is also suggested that the Lambda variant could be more infectious and resistant to vaccines than the Alpha and/or Gamma variant" in the introduction should not be there in my opinion. The source is an article that starts: "Scientists are concerned that a highly contagious new COVID-19 strain devastating Peru might be immune to vaccinations." It is stated as a fact that it is devastating Peru, but there have been only 1480 confirmed cases in Peru according to the table in the Wikipedia article. I have deleted it.

The image SARS-CoV-2 Lambda variant.svg is incorrect. At the very end of it should be "N:G214C" not "N:R214C". The former is what it currently shows on the Stanford source page and that matches the amino acid sequence shown on uniprot ( https://www.uniprot.org/uniprot/P0DTC9#sequences). I'd guess that there was originally a typo on the Stanford site and this was copied before the typo was fixed? 2600:1700:DFE0:7210:29E6:FC9F:1A70:DF77 ( talk) 05:19, 25 February 2022 (UTC)
