Shared Genomic Variants: Identification of Transmission Routes Using Pathogen Deep-Sequence Data.

American journal of epidemiology - 15 Nov 2017

Worby Colin J, Lipsitch Marc, Hanage William P

Abstract excerpt

Sequencing pathogen samples during a communicable disease outbreak is becoming an increasingly common procedure in epidemiologic investigations. Identifying who infected whom sheds considerable light on transmission patterns, high-risk settings and subpopulations, and the effectiveness of infection control. Genomic data shed new light on transmission dynamics and can be used to identify clusters of individuals...
