Variant fitness of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) variants. Shown is “mutational”/variant-level fitness measured by the increase in average transmission for different SARS-CoV-2 variants colored by clade relative to an early 2020 genotype: Wuhan-Hu-1 (Obermeyer et al. 2021).
