Research Article: Prolonged Viral Shedding in Cancer Patients with Asymptomatic or Mild Omicron Infection: A Retrospective Study
Abstract:
Omicron was first found in Gauteng province, South Africa. Omicron has a high transmissibility and has spread rapidly around the world. In late February , a wave of Omicron infections spread rapidly in Shanghai, China. As of June , , more than , patients had been infected, approximately % of whom were asymptomatic. The Omicron variant has increased transmissibility and is more susceptible to immune evasion. Currently, the major Omicron variants include BA.-BA., BQ, XBB, and EG.. The changes of S protein characteristics of Omicron strain may be related to immune escape and resistance to antibody treatment.
