According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, while the deployment of vaccines has had a tremendous positive impact on curbing the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic within the USA, new viral strains are still emerging. Some of these strains, e.g., B.1.1.7, are classified as variants of concern due to evidence of increased spread, path
