Abstract excerpt
The Omicron variants boast the highest infectivity rates among all SARS-CoV-2 variants. Despite their lower disease severity, they can reinfect COVID-19 patients and infect vaccinated individuals as well. The high number of mutations in these variants render them resistant to antibodies that otherwise neutralize the spike protein of the original SARS-CoV-2 spike protein. Recent research has shown that despite its...
