Protection of Omicron sub-lineage infection against reinfection with another Omicron sub-lineage

Chemaitelly, Hiam; Ayoub, Houssein H.; Coyle, Peter; Tang, Patrick; Yassine, Hadi M.; ... more authors ... less authors ( Nature Research , 2022 , Article)

There is significant genetic distance between SARS-CoV-2 Omicron (B.1.1.529) variant BA.1 and BA.2 sub-lineages. This study investigates immune protection of infection with one sub-lineage against reinfection with the other ...

First characterisation of antimicrobial susceptibility and resistance of Neisseria gonorrhoeae isolates in Qatar, 2017-2020

Al-Maslamani, Muna; Elmagboul, Emad Bashier Ibrahim; Puthiyottil, Aslam; Chemaitelly, Hiam; Varghese, Manoj Kizhakkepeedikayil; ... more authors ... less authors ( Public Library of Science , 2022 , Article)

Limited data are available regarding antimicrobial resistance in Neisseria gonorrhoeae strains circulating in WHO Eastern Mediterranean Region (EMR). We investigated the antimicrobial susceptibility/resistance of N. ...

Effect of mRNA Vaccine Boosters against SARS-CoV-2 Omicron Infection in Qatar.

Abu-Raddad, Laith J; Chemaitelly, Hiam; Ayoub, Houssein H; AlMukdad, Sawsan; Yassine, Hadi M; ... more authors ... less authors ( Massachusetts Medical Society , 2022 , Article)

Waning of vaccine protection against coronavirus disease 2019 (Covid-19) and the emergence of the omicron (or B.1.1.529) variant of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) have led to expedited ...

Duration of mRNA vaccine protection against SARS-CoV-2 Omicron BA.1 and BA.2 subvariants in Qatar.

Chemaitelly, Hiam; Ayoub, Houssein H; AlMukdad, Sawsan; Coyle, Peter; Tang, Patrick; ... more authors ... less authors ( Nature Research , 2022 , Article)

SARS-CoV-2 Omicron BA.1 and BA.2 subvariants are genetically divergent. We conducted a matched, test-negative, case-control study to estimate duration of protection of the second and third/booster doses of mRNA COVID-19 ...

Protection against the omicron variant from previous SARS-CoV-2 infection

Altarawneh, Heba N.; Chemaitelly, Hiam; Hasan, Mohammad R.; Ayoub, Houssein H.; Qassim, Suelen; ... more authors ... less authors ( Massachusetts Medical Society , 2022 , Other)

Natural infection with severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) elicits strong protection against reinfection with the B.1.1.7 (alpha),1,2 B.1.351 (beta),1 and B.1.617.2 (delta)3 variants. However, the ...

Effects of BA.1/BA.2 subvariant, vaccination, and prior infection on infectiousness of SARS-CoV-2 omicron infections.

Qassim, Suelen H; Chemaitelly, Hiam; Ayoub, Houssein H; AlMukdad, Sawsan; Tang, Patrick; ... more authors ... less authors ( Oxford University Press , 2022 , Article)

Compared to BA.1, BA.2 was associated with lower RT-qPCR cycle threshold (Ct) value-3.53 fewer cycles (95% CI: 3.46-3.60), signifying higher infectiousness. This may reflect higher viral load and/or longer duration of ...

Effects of Previous Infection and Vaccination on Symptomatic Omicron Infections.

Altarawneh, Heba N; Chemaitelly, Hiam; Ayoub, Houssein H; Tang, Patrick; Hasan, Mohammad R; ... more authors ... less authors ( Massachusetts Medical Society , 2022 , Article)

The protection conferred by natural immunity, vaccination, and both against symptomatic severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection with the BA.1 or BA.2 sublineages of the omicron (B.1.1.529) ...

BNT162b2 antigen dose and SARS-CoV-2 omicron infection in adolescents

Chemaitelly, Hiam; Ayoub, Houssein H.; Coyle, Peter; Tang, Patrick; Yassine, Hadi M.; ... more authors ... less authors ( Elsevier , 2023 , Other)

COVID-19 vaccine antigen dose might affect protection against SARS-CoV-2 infection,1, 2 but direct evidence to quantify this effect is absent. We conducted a matched, retrospective, cohort study using a regression ...

Protection against Reinfection with the Omicron BA.2.75 Subvariant

Chemaitelly, Hiam; Tang, Patrick; Coyle, Peter; Yassine, Hadi M.; Al-Khatib, Hebah A.; ... more authors ... less authors ( Massachusetts Medical Society , 2023 , Other)

The BA.2.75 sublineage of the B.1.1.529 (omicron) variant of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) may escape neutralizing antibodies. The BA.2.75 sublineage (primarily the BA.2.75.2 subvariant) ...

Duration of immune protection of SARS-CoV-2 natural infection against reinfection.

Chemaitelly, Hiam; Nagelkerke, Nico; Ayoub, Houssein H; Coyle, Peter; Tang, Patrick; ... more authors ... less authors ( Oxford University Press , 2022 , Article)

The future of the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic hinges on virus evolution and duration of immune protection of natural infection against reinfection. We investigated duration of protection afforded by natural infection, the effect ...
