From what I hear the Delta variant is about 10x as deadly as the lambda variant.

EDIT: the lambda is just another variant in the long chain of variants.

I think you must have heard it incorrectly. The Delta variant was reported to be 10x as contagious as the original covid 19. Without mentioning any deaths!

The Delta variant is more contagious than strains before it because Delta creates a higher viral load. Delta is also a sterilizing virus - in plain English that means that someone who is vaccinated can still pass on covid to others. Prior strains did not pass it on like that.
