A new longitudinal study provides critical insights into the intricate interplay between human immunity and viral evolution ...

CoVFit can predict the epidemic potential—i.e., the fitness—of SARS-CoV-2 variants based solely on their spike protein sequences. Viral infectious diseases pose significant challenges due to the rapid ...

The National Academies of Sciences, Engineering, and Medicine will establish an ad hoc committee to lay out a framework to define and describe the data needs for a system to track and correlate viral ...

The WHO Technical Advisory Group on COVID-19 Vaccine Composition (TAG-CO-VAC) continues to closely monitor the genetic and antigenic evolution of SARS-CoV-2 variants, immune responses to SARS-CoV-2 ...

From the earliest days of the pandemic that shocked the world in 2020, researchers at Fred Hutch Cancer Center tracked the rapid evolution and spread of the virus that causes COVID-19 by studying how ...

As population immunity continues to grow, understanding how immune responses influence both disease outcomes and viral evolution has become increasingly important.

Australian researchers published new findings on Tuesday, revealing how rapidly SARS-CoV-2, the virus behind COVID-19, evolved, offering crucial insights that could aid in forecasting and combating ...

The rapid development of vaccines against SARS-CoV-2 has been a critical milestone in responding to the COVID-19 pandemic, yet the continued evolution of ...

How could we forget the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic, right? It’s now part of our history, a story to pass on to the next generation. There are hundreds of related SARS-CoV strains known to infect different ...
