SARS-CoV-2 variants B.1.351 and P.1 escape from neutralizing antibodies.

TLDR
In this article, the authors show that SARS-CoV-2/COVID-19 variants B.1.7 (UK), B.351 (South Africa), and P.1 (Brazil) harbor mutations in the viral spike (S) protein that may alter virus-host cell interactions and confer resistance to inhibitors and antibodies.
