B.1.617.2 SARS-CoV-2 (Delta) variant is associated with increased risk of hospitalization and death compared with B.1.1.7 SARS-CoV-2 (Alpha) variant

2022-01-23

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Introduction</h4> The B.1.617.2 variant (Delta) was associated with increased transmissibility and lower vaccine effectiveness than the B.1.1.7 variant (Alpha). However, the effect of the B.1.617.2 variant on disease severity remains unclear. This study aims to assess whether infection with the B.1.617.2 variant was associated with a higher risk of serious illness, compared with other co-circulating variants,...
