Last January, a team of researchers searching for the coronavirus in New York Citys wastewater spotted something strange in their samples. The viral fragments they found had a unique constellation of mutations that had never been reported before in human patients a potential sign of a new, previously undetected variant.
For the past year, these oddball sequences, or what the scientists call cryptic lineages, have continued to pop up in the citys wastewater.
There is no evidence that the lineages, which have been circulating for at least a year without overtaking Delta or Omicron, pose an elevated health risk to humans. But the researchers, whose findings were published in Nature Communications on Thursday, still have no idea where they came from.
At this point, what we can say is that we havent found the cryptic lineages in human databases, and we have looked all over, said Monica Trujillo, a microbiologist at Queensborough Community College and an author of the new paper.
