Mashup Score: 3
A new analysis suggests that the Omicron variant has comparable intrinsic severity to the ancestral (Wuhan) SARS-CoV-2 strain, but its effective severity is substantially lower because of vaccination. Large Omicron outbreak in immune-naïve population For the first 2 years of the pandemic, Hong Kong was largely successful in suppressing mass infection with COVID-19. By the end of 2021, only 1%…

Mashup Score: 9Household COVID Omicron spread lower among vaccinated, study finds - 10 month(s) ago
An analysis during the SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variant wave in Japan suggests a lower rate of in-home COVID-19 transmission when the index (primary) patient or contact were fully vaccinated against COVID—and no transmission when both parties were fully vaccinated. The study was published late last week in the International Journal of Infectious Diseases. Higher Omicron secondary attack risk For the…

Mashup Score: 3Comparative epidemic expansion of SARS-CoV-2 variants Delta and Omicron in the Brazilian State of Amazonas - Nature Communications - 12 month(s) ago
The Amazonas region has been the most heavily affected by COVID-19 in Brazil. In this study, the authors conduct phylodynamic analyses to assess SARS-CoV-2 lineage replacement dynamics in the region and infer the impact of population immunity on the spread and severity of the Delta and Omicron variants.
