DOI: 10.1002/jmv.27467
Abstract: Young age, female sex, absence of comorbidities, and prior infection or vaccination are known epidemiological barriers for contracting the new infection and/or increased disease severity. Demographic trends from the recent COVID-19 waves, which are believed… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/jmv.27634
Abstract: As SARS-CoV-2 evolves, it accumulates mutations, which are changes in the genetic code. Because this virus has built-in RNA repair mechanisms, it generates mutations more slowly than some other RNA viruses. Thousands of mutations have… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/jmv.27717
Abstract: Numerous variants of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS‐CoV‐2) pandemic have evolved. Viral variants may evolve with harmful susceptibility to the immunity established with the existing COVID‐19 vaccination. These variants are more transmissible,… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/jmv.27735
Abstract: SARS‐CoV‐2 has evolved into a panel of variants of concern (VOCs) and constituted a sustained threat to global health. The wildtype (WT) SARS‐CoV‐2 isolates fail to infect mice, while the Beta variant, one of the… read more here.
