Comparative pathogenicity of BA.2.12, BA.5.2 and XBB.1 with the Delta variant in Syrian hamsters

Frontiers in Microbiology, 2023
Omicron variant is evolving into numerous sub variants with time and the information on the characteristics of these newly evolving variants are scant. Here we performed a pathogenicity evaluation of Omicron sub variants BA.2.12, BA.5.2 and XBB.1 against
