Hospital admission and emergency care attendance risk for SARS-CoV-2 delta (B.1.617.2) compared with alpha (B.1.1.7) variants of concern: a cohort study.

Katherine A Twohig, +607 more
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compared the severity of the delta variant compared with the alpha variant by determining the relative risk of hospital attendance outcomes and found that outbreaks of the Delta variant in unvaccinated populations might lead to a greater burden on health-care services than the alpha variants.
Journal ArticleDOI

NDM Metallo-β-Lactamases and Their Bacterial Producers in Health Care Settings.

TL;DR: New Delhi metallo-β-lactamase will remain a severe challenge in health care settings, and more studies on appropriate countermeasures are required, as commonly used phenotypic tests cannot specifically identify NDM.
Journal ArticleDOI

Why prokaryotes have pangenomes

TL;DR: It is suggested that pangenomes most easily arise in organisms with large long-term effective population sizes, as a consequence of acquiring advantageous genes, and that the focal species has the ability to migrate to new niches.
Journal ArticleDOI

SARS-CoV-2 Omicron is an immune escape variant with an altered cell entry pathway

Brian J. Willett, +672 more
- 07 Jul 2022 - 
TL;DR: In this article , the authors demonstrate substantial evasion of neutralization by Omicron BA.1 and BA.2 variants in vitro using sera from individuals vaccinated with ChAdOx1, BNT162b2 and mRNA-1273.529.
