A comparison of transmissibility of SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern

2 Apr 2023

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The World Health Organization (WHO) has currently detected five Variants of Concern of SARS-CoV-2 having the WHO labels of 'Alpha', 'Beta', 'Gamma', 'Delta' and 'Omicron'. We aimed to assess and compare the transmissibility of the five VOCs in terms of basic reproduction number, time-varying reproduction number and growth rate. METHODS: Publicly available data on the number of analyzed sequences over...
