Sumario:The perpetual emergence of SARS-CoV-2 variants is a serious issue that makes it difficult for the therapeutic antibodies and vaccines to end the COVID-19 pandemic. This article discusses the trend of increasing host fitness and immune escape by the virus and how to devise computational strategies for antibodies design and their affinity maturation against emerging SARS-CoV-2 variants.
