Lineage frequency time series reveal elevated levels of genetic drift in SARS-CoV-2 transmission in England
15 Apr 2024
Abstract excerpt
Genetic drift in infectious disease transmission results from randomness of transmission and host recovery or death. The strength of genetic drift for SARS-CoV-2 transmission is expected to be high due to high levels of superspreading, and this is expected to substantially impact disease epidemiology and evolution. However, we don't yet have an understanding of how genetic drift changes over time or across...
