Early assessment of the clinical severity of the SARS-CoV-2 omicron variant in South Africa: a data linkage study

Nicole Wolter et al.

Summary: According to data analysis from South Africa, individuals infected with the omicron variant have a lower likelihood of hospitalization compared to those infected with non-omicron variants. Furthermore, individuals infected with the omicron variant have a lower odds of severe disease compared to individuals infected with the earlier delta variant.

Enhanced fusogenicity and pathogenicity of SARS-CoV-2 Delta P681R mutation

Akatsuki Saito et al.

Summary: During the COVID-19 pandemic, the B.1.617.2/Delta variant has been found to be highly fusogenic and more pathogenic in infected hamsters compared to prototypic SARS-CoV-2. The P681R mutation in the spike protein of this variant enhances viral fusogenicity and pathogenicity.

Comparison of Patients Infected With Delta Versus Omicron COVID-19 Variants Presenting to Paris Emergency Departments A Retrospective Cohort Study

Donia Bouzid et al.

Summary: This study compares baseline characteristics and in-hospital outcomes of patients with SARS-CoV-2 infection with the Delta variant versus the Omicron variant in the emergency department. The results show that patients infected with the Omicron variant were younger, had a lower rate of obesity, were more vaccinated, had a lower rate of dyspnea, and had a higher rate of discharge home from the ED. Compared with Delta, Omicron infection was independently associated with a lower risk for ICU admission, mechanical ventilation, and in-hospital mortality.

Symptom prevalence, duration, and risk of hospital admission in individuals infected with SARS-CoV-2 during periods of omicron and delta variant dominance: a prospective observational study from the ZOE COVID Study

Cristina Menni et al.

Summary: This study investigated the differences in symptom prevalence, risk of hospital admission, and symptom duration between omicron and delta variants of the SARS-CoV-2 virus. The study found that loss of smell was less common in omicron infections, sore throat was more common, and the rate of hospital admission was lower.

Clinical outcomes associated with SARS-CoV-2 Omicron (B.1.1.529) variant and BA.1/BA.1.1 or BA.2 subvariant infection in Southern California

Joseph A. Lewnard et al.

Summary: Comparison of outcomes of SARS-CoV-2 Delta and Omicron infections reveals reduced severity of Omicron infections, especially in unvaccinated individuals. There is no differential risk of severe outcomes between subvariants BA.1 and BA.2. Continual assessment of clinical outcomes associated with SARS-CoV-2 variants is crucial for medical interventions and healthcare resource management.

Emergence of SARS-CoV-2 Omicron lineages BA.4 and BA.5 in South Africa

Houriiyah Tegally et al.

Summary: The genomic characterization of the SARS-CoV-2 Omicron lineages BA.4 and BA.5, responsible for the fifth wave of the COVID-19 pandemic in South Africa, reveals their continued viral diversification and sheds light on the potential mechanisms that allow these new lineages to outcompete their predecessors. These new lineages, BA.4 and BA.5, share identical spike proteins with BA.2 but have certain differences such as the presence of the 69-70 deletion, L452R, F486V, and the wild-type amino acid at Q493. They can be identified by the S-gene target failure, a proxy marker associated with the 69-70 deletion. BA.4 and BA.5 have rapidly replaced BA.2 and have become the dominant lineages in South Africa.

Emerging Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 Mutation Hotspots Associated With Clinical Outcomes and Transmission

Xianwu Pang et al.

Summary: Mutations in the SARS-CoV-2 genome are directly associated with clinical outcomes and pandemic, with mutations more likely to occur in mild and severe cases. Mutations associated with asymptomatic cases are mainly found in open reading frame 1ab (ORF1ab) and N genes, while mutations in mild and severe cases are more prevalent.
