Further, during the Covid infection, the person also evolved at least three distinct lineages of the virus in the bloodstream. “Each of the lineages was genetically divergent enough (about 20-40 mutations from the original virus) that they would be classified as separate lineages if they were to spread into the wider population,” Chrispin Chaguza from Yale school of Public Health wrote on Twitter. “Our study provides evidence that chronic SARS-CoV-2 infections could be a source for the…
