Abstract The Omicron variant of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), first detected in October 2021, possessed many mutations compared to previous variants. We aimed to identify and analyze SARS-CoV-2 Omicron subvariants among coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) patients between January 2022 and September 2022 in Taiwan. The results revealed that BA.2.3.7, featuring K97E and G1251V in the spike protein compared with BA.2, emerged in March 2022 and persistently dominated between April 2022 and August 2022, resulting in the largest COVID-19 outbreak since 2020. The accumulation of amino acid (AA) variations, mainly AA substitution, in the spike protein was accompanied by increasing severity in Omicron-related COVID-19 between April 2022 and January 2023. Older patients were more likely to have severe COVID-19, and comorbidity was a risk factor for COVID-19-related mortality. The accumulated case fatality rate (CFR) dropped drastically after Omicron variants, mainly BA.2.3.7, entered Taiwan after April 2022, and the CFR was 0.16% in Taiwan, which was lower than that worldwide (0.31%) between April 2021 and January 2023. The relatively low CFR in Omicron-related COVID-19 patients can be attributed to adjustments to public health policies, promotion of vaccination programs, effective antiviral drugs, and the lower severity of the Omicron variant.

Note
Basic Characteristics of Mutations
  • Mutation Site: The specific location in a gene or protein sequence where a change occurs.
  • Mutation Level: The level at which a mutation occurs, including the nucleotide or amino acid level.
  • Mutation Type: The nature of the mutation, such as missense mutation, nonsense mutation, synonymous mutation, etc.
  • Gene/Protein/Region: Refers to the specific region of the virus where the mutation occurs. Including viral genes, viral proteins, or a specific viral genome region. If the article does not specifically indicate the relationship between the mutation and its correspondence, the main
  • Gene/Protein/Region studied in the article is marked.
  • Genotype/Subtype: Refers to the viral genotype or subtype where the mutation occurs. If the article does not specifically indicate the relationship between the mutation and its correspondence, the main Genotype/Subtype studied in the article is marked.
  • Viral Reference: Refers to the standard virus strain used to compare and analyze viral sequences.
Functional Impact and Mechanisms
