Variants of SARS-CoV-2, their effects on infection, transmission and neutralization by vaccine-induced antibodies

The article “Variants of SARS-CoV-2, their effects on infection, transmission and neutralization by vaccine-induced antibodies” published in Eur Rev Med Pharmacol Sci by Shafiul Haque et al. is a study that analyzes the variants of the Coronavirus-2 respiratory syndrome (SARS-CoV-2) for its effects on infection, transmission, and neutralization by vaccine-induced antibodies.

In particular, the research suggests a close monitoring of genetic mutation studies. Genome sequencing of the circulating SARS-CoV-2 strains should be done continuously following the standard protocol(s) in all the countries across the globe. It will help in containing the new variants rapidly by taking appropriate steps in minimal possible time.
