Viral infection and transmission in a large, well-traced outbreak caused by the SARS-CoV-2 Delta variant

2021-07-12

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Summary</h4> We report the first local transmission of the SARS-CoV-2 Delta variant in mainland China. All 167 infections could be traced back to the first index case. Daily sequential PCR testing of the quarantined subjects indicated that the viral loads of Delta infections, when they first become PCR+, were on average ∼1000 times greater compared to A/B lineage infections during initial epidemic wave in Chi...
