The term variant of concern (VOC) for SARS-CoV-2, which causes COVID-19, is a category used for variants of the virus where mutations in their spike protein receptor binding domain (RBD) substantially increase binding affinity (e.g., N501Y) in RBD-hACE2 complex (genetic data), while also being linked to rapid spread in human populations ...
British epidemiologist Tim Spector said in mid-December 2021 that the majority of symptoms of the Omicron variant were the same as a common cold, including headaches, sore throat, runny nose, fatigue and sneezing, so that people with cold symptoms should take a test. "Things like fever, cough and loss of smell are now in the minority of ...
The JN.1 variant may be "intensifying the spread of COVID-19 this winter," the CDC said in an update on Jan. 5. Waning immunity, low COVID-19 vaccine uptake, and holiday gatherings likely also ...
The new "FLiRT" COVID-19 variants, including KP.3 and KP.2, are spreading in the United States. Will there be a summer surge? Experts discuss transmission, symptoms, and vaccines.
FLiRT refers to a set of similar variants of the COVID-19 coronavirus that mutated from the JN.1 variant. The name comes from the positions of the mutations in the spike proteins. One of the ...
This list provides examples of known textual variants, and contains the following parameters: Hebrew texts written right to left, the Hebrew text romanised left to right, an approximate English translation, and which Hebrew manuscripts or critical editions of the Hebrew Bible this textual variant can be found in. Greek (Septuagint) and Latin (Vulgate) texts are written left to right, and not ...
The variant's parent lineage, BA.2.86, has a large number of mutations compared to the original version of omicron — and those changes have enabled the virus to sidestep existing immunity ...
