Genetic epidemiology of SARS-CoV-2 transmission in renal dialysis units - a high risk community-hospital interface

2021-03-26

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Objectives</h4> Patients requiring haemodialysis are at increased risk of serious illness with SARS-CoV-2 infection. To improve the understanding of transmission risks in six Scottish renal dialysis units, we utilised the rapid whole-genome sequencing data generated by the COG-UK consortium. <h4>Methods</h4> We combined geographical, temporal and genomic sequence data from the community and hospital to estimat...
