Clinical Epidemiology of Pediatric COVID-19 Delta Variant Cases From North Sumatra, Indonesia

Abstract: The Delta variant of SARS-CoV-2 (severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2) dominated the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic in 2021. Here we report the Delta variant among pediatric cases in North Sumatra, Indonesia, from June to July 2021. Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) from 18 new COVID-19 pediatric patients showed that six were B.1.459 and six were B.1.466.2, known variants in Indonesia in clade 20A. Six were the Delta variant B.1.617.2 of clade 21A, with five on one branch and one on a dist… Show more

“…In fact, until recently, there was no significant breakthrough in COVID-19 drug design studies. Even worse, the pandemic ravaged to the new escalation as the SARS-CoV-2 delta variant appeared (Pango Lineage: B.1.617.2) as the variant of concern (VOC) with much higher infection and hospitalization rate ever worldwide [13][14][15].
