Article Synopsis
- - The study highlights the need for effective prediction of COVID-19 outbreaks, despite the virus being categorized as mild by health organizations, due to new immune escape variants emerging during pandemic waves.
- - Researchers analyzed data from 14 developed countries to explore the relationship between early-stage variant competition, immunity from infections and vaccines, and the timing of subsequent pandemic waves.
- - Findings indicate that higher proportions of new variants were linked to shorter intervals between outbreak peaks, and suggest that broad vaccination efforts may significantly reduce future case numbers, emphasizing that natural immunity alone may not be enough to control transmission.
