Tracking the emergence of new SARS-CoV-2 variants in South Africa

1 Mar 2021

Abstract excerpt

A large genomic surveillance effort in South Africa produced 1,365 high-quality whole genomes of SARS-CoV-2; this has identified 16 new lineages of the virus that had not been identified in other countries.
