Virus: is a biological agent that reproduces inside the cells of living hosts. When infected, a host cell produces thousands of identical copies of the original virus at an extraordinary rate.
Since the initial COVID-19 outbreak, the SARS-CoV-2 virus has mutated, resulting in a range of variants. SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern, exemplified most recently with Omicron, need to be de...
