“…Brazil is one of the countries that had an exponential increase in the disease case curve during the first half of 2020, and the situation became even more critical in the first four months of 2021, with a resurgence of COVID-19 cases in several Brazilian urban centres, especially Manaus, the capital of the state of Amazonas [ 41 ]. This could be due to the emergence of a new virus variant, named P.1, which is around 2.5 times more transmissible than that of the first wave [ 42 ]. The emergence of new, more transmissible variants [ 43 ] coupled with the slow vaccine rollout caused a brutal surge in deaths in the first months of 2021, reaching over 4000 fatalities/day in early April [ 12 ].…”

“…However, it does not explain the rise in mortality in younger ages. Thus, it is plausible to assume that the evolution of new viral phenotypes is correlated to the rejuvenation in mortality observed in the third stage [34][35][36][37].…”

“…While India ranked third in the country-wise contribution to daily cases in January 2021, this sudden surge catapulted India to the topmost position by the first week of April 2021 and heralded the onset of the colossal second wave in the country [2]. Considering the reports of novel variants of the SARS-CoV-2 virus driving new waves of the pandemic in the UK, Brazil, and South Africa, we were interested in exploring if the second wave in India was also orchestrated by the emergence of a new viral variant [3][4][5][6].…”
