Abstract
SARS-CoV-2 continues to evolve and circulate globally. In recent weeks, variants such as KP.2 and KP.3 have been rapidly increasing in many countries. Prevention strategies such as receiving updated COVID-19 vaccines, wearing masks when recommended, washing hands frequently, getting tested if symptoms appear, and staying home when sick can help protect individuals and others from COVID-19.
