An innovative hybrid approach using quantum computing and genomic data analysis for predictive Covid-19 surveillance


 

Abstract

The global response to the COVID-19 pandemic exposed the limitations of an epidemiological model that is fundamentally reactive, where clinical and public health responses to the virus's evolution can only occur after new variants are developed and disseminated. The constant mutational evolution of the viral Spike protein means that a classical surveillance system has little chance of being able to predict new COVID-19 variant emergence. As such, this study proposes an important shift toward proactive prediction and proves it is possible to predict mutations before they emerge, using a hybrid approach that combines genomic data analysis and new potentials from quantum computing. Clusters analysis of SARS-CoV-2 genomic sequences from France, Germany, Italy, Spain, and Portugal has identified three major clusters of Spike protein mutations, and preliminary results suggest 19 universal mutations from them. It consistently was found that mutation dynamics in Italy were comparatively negatively correlated to mutation dynamics in the other countries in Europe. This finding bolsters the importance of a thorough molecular analysis and prototype relations that far exceed time-based chronology. Finally, this work shows that quantum computing is a practical solution to tackling the exponential complexity of this problem on a global scale. It also provides a path for future vaccine design in specific regions, heralding a new era in preventive medicine.

What Could Represent the Mantissa of the Registered Covid-19 Cases?

  Citation : Raúl Isea (2022) What Could Represent the Mantissa of the Registered Covid-19 Cases?. International Journal of Coronaviruses - 4(2):1-6. https://doi.org/10.14302/issn.2692-1537.ijcv-22-4108 PDF:  https://openaccesspub.org/article/1783/ijcv-22-4108.pdf Abstract In this work we present how it is possible to visualize the different coronavirus outbreaks from the calculation of the mantissa from the daily record of cases by Covid-19.This curve can also indicate the speed of propagation of the disease from the calculated infection rate. These conclusions are derived from the respective calculations in four different countries: Australia, Brazil, Italy, and Venezuela.

Analytical Solutions of the Transmissibility of the SARS-CoV-2 in Three Interactive Populations

  Citation : Raúl Isea (2021) Analytical Solutions of the Transmissibility of the SARS-CoV-2 in Three Interactive Populations. International Journal of Coronaviruses - 2(4):1-8. https://doi.org/10.14302/issn.2692-1537.ijcv-21-3732 PDF:  https://openaccesspub.org/article/1571/ijcv-21-3732.pdf Abstract This paper resolves analytically a mathematical model that reproduces the transmission of Covid-19 in three interactive populations, i.e. from the initial source of contagion associated with the bat population, subsequently transmitted to unknown host (usually associate with pangolins). The host were sent and distributed to Seafood Market in Wuhan (defined reservoir), and finally infected to the human population. The model is based on a system of ten differential equations reproducing all the possible infection scenarios among all of them, that is: (1) there is no infection in any of the three populations, (2) only the population of bats is infected, (3) only the pangolins, (4) on...
