Abstract excerpt
Due to the constantly increasing number of mutations in the SARS-CoV-2 genome, concerns have emerged over the possibility of decreased diagnostic accuracy of reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), the gold standard diagnostic test for SARS-CoV-2. We propose an analysis pipeline to discover genomic variations overlapping the target regions of commonly used PCR primer sets. We provide the list of...
