                                        Comment: Sotrovimab (VIR-7831) is a monoclonal antibody that binds to a highly conserved epitope within the surface spike glycoprotein of sarbecoviruses. The parental antibody, from which sotrovimab was derived, was originally identified in the memory B cells of a patient who had recovered from SARS-CoV infection. Sotrovimab was progressed by GSK and Vir Biotechnology as a COVID-19 therapeutic [4].  Sotrovimab retains some activity against the omicron BA.1 (B.1.1.529) SARS-CoV-2 variant (bioRxiv preprint [1]), but it activity against the BA.2 omicron subvariant is lower [3].
