Abstract excerpt

A high-quality dataset of 3289 complete SARS-CoV-2 genomes collected in Europe and European Economic Area (EAA) in the early phase of the first wave of the pandemic was analyzed. Among all single nucleotide mutations, 41 had a frequency ≥ 1%, and the phylogenetic analysis showed at least 6 clusters with a specific mutational profile. These clusters were differentially distributed in the EU/EEA, showing a...
