SARS-CoV-2 Nasopharyngeal Viral Load in Individuals Infected with BA.2, Compared to Alpha, Gamma, Delta and BA.1 Variants: A Single-Center Comparative Analysis

2022-07-29

Abstract excerpt

Background: SARS-CoV-2 has evolved, leading to the emergence of new Variants Of Concern (VOCs) with significant impact on transmissibility. Although the transmission process is complex, higher nasopharyngeal viral load (NP-VL) can be considered as a proxy for greater transmissibility.<br><br>Objectives: The aim of this analysis was to compare NP-VL across a set of representative VOCs observed in mildly symptomatic...
