Abstract: Multiple variants of SARS-CoV-2 have appeared in many countries across the world and resulted in the gradual enhancement of viral transmission and infection. Recently, Delta variant invaded China and caused serious consequences. The continuous mutation of SARS-CoV-2 is turning into a critical topic of global pandemic control. By summarizing the studies of typical variants, this article analyzed the impacts of SARS-CoV-2 variants on diagnosis, treatment, and vaccination from the perspective of biology, and discussed the strategies on how to tackle the challenge of the continuous mutation.
