Emerging SARS-CoV-2 Variants Can Potentially Break Set Epidemiological Barriers in COVID-19

2021-08-13

Abstract excerpt

Younger age, female sex, absence of comorbidities, and prior infection or vaccination are known epidemiological barriers for contracting the new infection and/or increased disease severity. Demographic trends from the recent COVID waves, which are believed to be driven by new SARS-CoV-2 variants, indicate that the aforementioned epidemiological barriers are being breached and a larger number of younger and healthy...
