Article

On the evolutionary epidemiology of SARS-CoV-2.

Current biology : CB - 3 Aug 2020

Day Troy, Gandon Sylvain, Lion Sébastien, Otto Sarah P

Abstract excerpt

There is no doubt that the novel coronavirus SARS-CoV-2 that causes COVID-19 is mutating and thus has the potential to adapt during the current pandemic. Whether this evolution will lead to changes in the transmission, the duration, or the severity of the disease is not clear. This has led to considerable scientific and media debate, from raising alarms about evolutionary change to dismissing it. Here we review...
