Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARSCoV-2) is a single-stranded positive-sense Ribonucleic Acid (RNA) virus that has burst upon the world, causing millions of deaths worldwide. Inadequate public health measures cause the virus to evolve more rapidly, acquiring several mutations Though the virus has a “Proofreading” activity, several lineages and clades have been established based on the characteristic given mutation .
