COVID-19 vaccination coverage and breakthrough infections in urban slums of India
COVID-19 vaccination coverage and breakthrough infections in urban slums of India
A new study aimed to identify COVID-19 vaccination coverage, examine the factors responsible for COVID-19 vaccination coverage and vaccine hesitancy, study adverse events following immunization patterns after COVID-19 vaccination and determine the prevalence of breakthrough infection after COVID-19 vaccination. // 30.11.2021

Identifying the spread of novel B.1.1.523 SARS-CoV-2
In their recent study, researchers from Lithuania have reported the emergence of a novel severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) variant lineage B.1.1.523 containing a set of mutations associated with immune escape, including deletion 156_158del, substitution E484K and S494P in Spike (S) protein. // 28.11.2021

SARS-CoV-2 delta variant generates infections more quickly than previous strains
Researchers in the UK have conducted a study suggesting that the B.1.617.2 (delta) variant of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) – the agent that causes coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) – is transmitted more quickly than previously circulating variants. // 26.10.2021

N501Y mutation in SARS-CoV-2 Delta variant is key to breakthrough infections
A study in the Philadelphia area found that severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) variants evolve to become more contagious and resistant to COVID-19 vaccines. In addition, depending on the sublineage, SARS-CoV-2 variants such as the Delta variant led to a three-fold increased risk for vaccine breakthrough cases. // 25.10.2021

Delta SARS-CoV-2 variant does not make kids sicker than Alpha, study finds
Children are not at risk for more severe COVID-19 disease with Delta compared to earlier severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) variants, finds a new medRxiv* preprint study. In the first large-scale epidemiological study comparing SARS-CoV-2 infection between variants in children, researchers found children were more likely to be as sick from Delta as they would be if they were infected with the Alpha variant. // 11.10.2021
