Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome Coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) Infectivity by Viral Load, S Gene Variants and Demographic Factors, and the Utility of Lateral Flow Devices to Prevent Transmission

Lennard Y. W. Lee et al.

Summary: The study found that the infectivity of SARS-CoV-2 varies with case viral load, contact event type, and age. Those with high viral loads are the most infectious. The B.1.1.7 variant increases transmission by 50%. The best performing LFDs can detect most infectious cases.

Summary: This study aimed to assess the protection against breakthrough infection with SARS-CoV-2 after mRNA vaccination, comparing individuals with and without prior infection. The findings showed that individuals with prior SARS-CoV-2 infection had a significantly lower risk for breakthrough infection, indicating a potential benefit of natural immunity in vaccine protection.

Two prolonged viremic SARS-CoV-2 infections with conserved viral genome for two months

Laith J. Abu-Raddad et al.

Summary: We report two cases of viremic and prolonged active infection with SARS-CoV-2 where the viral genome remained stable for two months, but with minimal or no symptoms. Clearance of infection occurred 40 and 41 days after detectable antibodies appeared in each case. These cases were incidentally identified during an investigation on reinfection among a cohort of 133,266 laboratory-confirmed infected individuals.

Effect of Delta variant on viral burden and vaccine effectiveness against new SARS-CoV-2 infections in the UK

Koen B. Pouwels et al.

Summary: A large, community-based study in the United Kingdom indicates that the effectiveness of BNT162b2 and ChAdOx1 vaccines against SARS-CoV-2 infections with symptoms or high viral burden is reduced with the Delta variant compared to the Alpha variant. Although the effectiveness of two doses is at least as great as protection afforded by prior natural infection, there are significant differences in the dynamics of immunity after the second dose between BNT162b2 and ChAdOx1.

Summary: In a study conducted in Qatar involving over 900,000 participants, vaccine effectiveness peaked at 77.5% in the first month after the second dose. However, it declined afterwards to as low as 20% in months 5 through 7 after vaccination, while protection against severe Covid-19 remained above 90% for at least 6 months.

Risk of mortality in patients infected with SARS-CoV-2 variant of concern 202012/1: matched cohort study

Robert Challen et al.

Summary: The study found that the mortality hazard ratio associated with infection with VOC-202012/1 compared with previously circulating variants was 1.64, indicating an increase in deaths from 2.5 to 4.1 per 1000 detected cases in comparatively low risk group of covid-19 patients in the community. This suggests that infection with VOC-202012/1 may lead to substantial additional mortality compared with previously circulating variants, impacting healthcare capacity planning and control policies.

SARS-CoV-2 seropositivity and subsequent infection risk in healthy young adults: a prospective cohort study

Summary: Young adults with SARS-CoV-2 antibodies have about one-fifth the risk of subsequent infection compared to those without antibodies. While antibodies from initial infection offer protection, they do not guarantee effective neutralization or immunity against future infection. These findings could impact mass vaccination strategies.

Interpreting vaccine efficacy trial results for infection and transmission

Marc Lipsitch et al.

Summary: Randomized controlled trials have demonstrated the efficacy of various vaccines against COVID-19, with recent studies also showing effectiveness against infection and transmission. By estimating viral positivity, a measure of prevalence, vaccine effectiveness against transmission can be assessed, providing a lower bound. These methods can be translated into observational studies to further evaluate vaccine effectiveness.

SARS-CoV-2 seroprevalence in the urban population of Qatar: An analysis of antibody testing on a sample of 112,941 individuals

Summary: The study found that less than two in every 10 individuals in Qatar's urban population had detectable antibodies against SARS-CoV-2, indicating that herd immunity is still far off and there is a risk of subsequent infection waves. Higher antibody titers may serve as a biomarker of repeated exposures to the infection.

Summary: This study aimed to characterize the viral load dynamics, duration of viral shedding, and viable virus shedding of SARS-CoV-2 in various body fluids. The findings suggest that while SARS-CoV-2 RNA shedding can be prolonged in respiratory and stool samples, the duration of viable virus shedding is relatively short-lived.
