Transmission characteristics of SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern Rapid Scoping Review

2021-04-25

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Background</h4> As of March 2021, three SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern (VOC) have been identified (B.1.1.7, B.1.351 and P.1) and been detected in over 111 countries. Despite their widespread circulation, little is known about their transmission characteristics. There is a need to understand current evidence on VOCs before practice and policy decisions can be made. This study aimed to map the evidence related t...
