Definition
These SARS-CoV-2 variants are designated as variants of concern (VoC) if they are associated with select characteristics, such as increase in transmissibility or virulence, decrease in effectiveness of vaccines and/or therapeutics, or interference with diagnostic test targets.

Encyclopaedic information
Emerging data regarding the prevalence and clinical significance of SARS-CoV-2 variants, and the efficacy of monoclonal antibodies against variants, may inform the choice of specific anti-SARS-CoV-2 monoclonal antibody therapy in the future.

Examples
Member States should also strongly discourage all non-essential travel to and from areas with a high prevalence of SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern or interest and to and from areas with an unknown prevalence due to insufficient sequencing volume.
