| summary | WHO — 2026-03-30 — "Types of data requested to inform May 2026 COVID-19 vaccine antigen composition deliberations." T1 canonical indicator: WHO TAG-CO-VAC is on cadence for May 2026 antigen-composition meeting, signalling (a) routine institutional handling of current variant landscape — no emergency reconfiguration posture — and (b) active surveillance of BA.3.2 / LP.8.1 / XFG / NB.1.8.1 / LF.7.1 lineages for cross-neutralization data. Directly supports no-novel-emergence baseline: WHO is treating current evolution as a vaccine-strain-selection question rather than a novel-pathogen question. |
