| On the cover: Medicine is the practice of the diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of disease. With the advances in medical science, human beings are getting both longer life spans and higher quality of life. From herbs to molecular signatures, humankind is experiencing a transition from traditional medicine to personalized medicine: the right treatment to the right patient at the right time. However, it is not so easy to achieve this goal because the etiology of most diseases and disorders is still unclear. From description to association, numerous researchers are working together to decipher the mechanisms behind disease. To address such challenges, more and more global collaborations are badly needed to include experts from all disciplines: not just doctors, scientists and administration staff, but also engineers, technicians and marketing managers. Not limited to a fish-eye view, we humans should widen our vision and get more deep insights beyond the human community. That is the right way to assure sustainable healthcare for humanity. |

Emerging SARS-CoV-2 variants of concerns and the newly designated recombinant lineage Omicron XE
Since the emergence of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) in 2019, the causative agent of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), the virus keeps evolving as transmission continues globally. On November 26, 2021, a highly divergent variant with a high number of mutations, the Omicron (PANGO lineage B1.1.529),1 was designated by the World Health Organization (WHO) as a variant of concern (VOC). The Omicron variant has been spreading rapidly than any other previous variants of SARS-CoV-2, and is currently the dominant variant worldwide that accounts for more than 95% of sequenced cases submitted to GISAID.
