Objective: Genomic surveillance and seroprevalence of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS CoV-2) in Bangladesh is paramount for COVID-19 pandemic preparedness yet lagging the high-income countries due to limited resources. Methods: SARS-CoV-2 variants, COVID-19 symptoms, and serology were prospectively evaluated in a cross-sectional study of Bangladeshi adults testing RT-PCR positive in 2021 and 2022. Results: SARS CoV-2 Omicron variants of asymptomatic or mild COVID-19 in 2022 replaced Delta variant infections requiring hospitalization and oxygen support. The omicron XBB became predominant in July 2022 and associated with cough, headache or body ache and loss of smell; 47 of 68 (69 %), 30 of 68 (44 %) and 27 of 68 (40 %) respectively at higher frequency than BA.1/BA.2; 16 of 88 (18 %), 13 of 88 (15 %) and 0 of 88 (0 %) p |
