The evolving SARS-CoV-2 epidemic in Africa: Insights from rapidly expanding genomic surveillance

15 Sept 2022

Abstract excerpt

Investment in severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) sequencing in Africa over the past year has led to a major increase in the number of sequences that have been generated and used to track the pandemic on the continent, a number that now exceeds 100,000 genomes. Our results show an increase in the number of African countries that are able to sequence domestically and highlight that local...
