Epidemiological characteristics of the B.1.526 SARS-CoV-2 variant

2021-08-07

Abstract excerpt

To characterize the epidemiological properties of the B.1.526 SARS-CoV-2 variant of interest, here we utilized nine epidemiological and population datasets and model-inference methods to reconstruct SARS-CoV-2 transmission dynamics in New York City, where B.1.526 emerged. We estimated that B.1.526 had a moderate increase (15-25%) in transmissibility and could escape immunity in 0-10% of previously infected individ...
