The Greek Alphabet

In college, my sorority Required us to learn The alphabet in Greek, Which we recited in our turn. Since then, I’ve used it rarely – In a crossword clue, perhaps – As my brain recites those letters That my memory unwraps. Lately, though, with Covid’s Delta And now Omicron’s new streak, There’ve been many more occasions To recall my long-lost Greek.

Yes, indeed, Ilene. I am curious as to why they are naming these sars strains after Greek letters? Hmmm...I do wonder.
