The first four COVID-19 call topics are published on the Funding and Tender portal (keyword covid). The opening of the calls is postponed from 13 April (as was previously communicated) to 15 April, due to technical problems with the submission system on the Funding and Tender portal. However the necessary information and documents are already available on the portal. 

Two topics are taken up in the Health work programme:

- HORIZON-HLTH-2021-CORONA-01-01: vaccine & therapeutic clinical trials to boost COVID-19 prevention and treatment

- HORIZON-HLTH-2021-CORONA-01-02: cohorts united against COVID-19 variants of concern

Two topics are included in the Research infrastructure work programme:

- HORIZON-INFRA-2021-EMERGENCY-01: FAIR and open data sharing in support to European preparedness for COVID-19 and other infectious diseases

- HORIZON-INFRA-2021-EMERGENCY-02: infrastructure services for rapid research responses to Covid-19 and other infectious disease epidemics

The recording of the dedicated information webinar on these four calls is available here https://webcast.ec.europa.eu/horizon-europe-focused-actions-in-research-infrastructures-and-health-to-target-covid-19-variants
