Antigenic and virological properties of an H3N2 variant that will likely dominate the 2021-2022 Northern Hemisphere influenza season

2021-12-16

Abstract excerpt

Influenza viruses have circulated at very low levels during the COVID-19 pandemic, and population immunity against these viruses is low. Influenza virus cases have been increasing in the Northern Hemisphere involving an H3N2 strain (3C.2a1b.2a2) with a hemagglutinin (HA) that has several substitutions relative to the 2021-2022 H3N2 vaccine strain. Here, we show that one of these substitutions eliminates a key glyc...
