Comparative transmission of SARS-CoV-2 Omicron (B.1.1.529) and Delta (B.1.617.2) variants and the impact of vaccination: national cohort study, England

2022-02-17

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Summary</h4> <h4>Background</h4> The SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variant (B.1.1.529) has rapidly replaced the Delta variant (B.1.617.2) to become dominant in England. This epidemiological study assessed differences in transmissibility between the Omicron and Delta using two methods and data sources. <h4>Methods</h4> Omicron and Delta cases were identified through genomic sequencing, genotyping and S-gene target failure...
