A single virus remains unchanged over whatever period of time its a virus (which can be many years) but mutations are common during its "reproductive" cycle ... after all, it essentially dissolves in the process, becoming a part of the host cell.

When a virus changes, it is known as a mutation. Viral mutations can lead to variations in the virus's genetic material, potentially impacting its transmissibility, severity, and response to treatments or vaccines.
