SARS-CoV-2 Omicron variant replication in human respiratory tract ex vivo

2021-12-22

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Emergence of SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern (VOC) with progressively increased transmissibility between humans is a threat to global public health. Omicron variant also evades immunity from natural infection or vaccines<sup>1</sup>. It is unclear whether its exceptional transmissibility is due to immune evasion or inherent virological properties.We compared the replication competence an...
