Introduction: The corona virus disease 19 (COVID-19) pandemic has presented a global health challenge, and several consecutive variants of the severe acute respiratory syndrome-corona virus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) virus have been dominant. Previous studies highlighted decreased mortality rates during the predominance of the omicron variant; however, severely immunocompromised individuals remained at high risk due to limited vaccine response. This study aims to compare mortality rates during the omicron period between immunocompromised and non-immunocompromised patients in intensive care units (ICUs) in The Netherlands.

Background: In developing settings, comparative data on COVID hospitalised survivors (HS) and non-hospitalised survivors (NHS) is scarce. We determined burdens, incidence, evolution, and associated factors of long COVID-19 over two years among these groups.
Methods: We conducted a longitudinal cohort study in Dhaka, Bangladesh, and recruited confirmed COVID-19 survivors from December 2020 to May 2021 (previously reported).

Background: Household transmission of respiratory viruses may drive community spread. Few recent studies have examined household respiratory syncytial virus (RSV) transmission in the United States.
Methods: We conducted a prospective community-based cohort study from 1 June 2022 to 31 May 2023.
BackgroundEvolution of SARS-CoV-2 is continuous.AimBetween 01/2020 and 02/2022, we studied SARS-CoV-2 variant epidemiology, evolution and association with COVID-19 severity.MethodsIn nasopharyngeal swabs of COVID-19 patients (n = 1,762) from France, Italy, Spain, and the Netherlands, SARS-CoV-2 was investigated by reverse transcription-quantitative PCR and whole-genome sequencing, and the virus variant/lineage (NextStrain/Pangolin) was determined.
