The coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has sparked widespread concern globally, particularly with the Omicron variant and its sub-lineages emerging as predominant cause of infection for nearly two years. Taiwan's successful containment COVID-19, underscored by broad vaccine coverage, utilization anti-viral therapeutics, timely response strategies, resulted in reduced excess mortality. Moreover, there is a crucial need phased exit strategy, balancing efforts to curtail transmission mitigation socioeconomic impacts from rigorous measures. In this review, we examined evolution epidemiological landscape severe acute respiratory syndrome 2 (SARS-CoV-2) sub-variants Taiwan well other countries world. We also critically evaluated effectiveness COVID-19 vaccines against various SARS-CoV-2 variants. Additionally, addressed advantages heterologous immunization fluctuations neutralizing antibody titers, complexities establishing protective correlates among swiftly mutating viral

COVID-19 vaccines have recently been updated to specifically encode or contain the spike protein of SARS-CoV-2 XBB.1.5 subvariant, but their immunogenicity in humans has yet be fully evaluated and reported, particularly against emergent viruses that are rapidly expanding. We now report administration an monovalent mRNA vaccine booster (XBB.1.5 MV) previously uninfected individuals boosted serum virus-neutralizing antibodies significantly not only (27.0-fold increase) EG.5.1 (27.6-fold also key emerging such as HV.1, HK.3, JD.1.1, JN.1 (13.3- 27.4-fold increase). Individuals infected by Omicron subvariant had highest overall neutralizing titers (ID

We estimated vaccine effectiveness (VE) of SARS-CoV-2 Omicron XBB.1.5 vaccination against self-reported infection between 9 October 2023 and January 2024 in 23,895 vaccine-eligible adults who had previously received at least one booster. VE was 41% (95% CI: 23–55) 18–59-year-olds 50% 44–56) 60–85-year-olds. Sequencing data suggest lower protection the BA.2.86 (including JN.1) variant from recent prior (OR = 2.8; 95% CI:1.2–6.5) and, not statistically significant, 1.5; CI:0.8–2.6).

The emergence of SARS-CoV-2 variants has significantly impacted the global response to COVID-19 pandemic. This review examines genetic diversity variants, their roles in epidemiological tracking, and influence on viral fitness. Variants concern (VOCs) such as Alpha, Beta, Gamma, Delta, Omicron have demonstrated increased transmissibility, altered pathogenicity, potential resistance neutralizing antibodies. Epidemiological tracking these is crucial for understanding spread, informing public health interventions, guiding vaccine development. also explores how specific mutations spike protein other genomic regions contribute fitness, affecting replication efficiency, immune escape, transmission dynamics. By integrating surveillance data with clinical findings, this provides a comprehensive overview ongoing evolution its implications strategies new
