The immune landscape and viral shedding of Omicron SARS-CoV-2 variants implicate immune escape
The duration of viral shedding in patients infected with Omicron variants BA.4/5 and BF.7 is not associated with WBC, Hb, Lym, CRP, fever, allergy, or vaccine-related indicators. This lack of association may be attributed to immune escape mechanisms.
