Since the start of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, several variants of the virus have developed into Variants of Concern (VOCs), as classified by the World Health Organization (WHO). VOCs are virus variants ...
Viral infectious diseases pose significant challenges due to the rapid evolution of viruses through mutations. This was particularly evident during the COVID-19 pandemic, when emerging variants of ...
Integrating case counts with genomic sequences quantifies real-time transmission advantages of viral variants.
Among healthy adults receiving the JN.1- or KP.2-adapted mRNA seasonal COVID-19 vaccine, neutralizing antibody responses were similar.
