2020-11-24
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background</h4> SARS-CoV-2 mortality has been extensively studied in relation to host susceptibility. How sequence variations in the SARS-CoV-2 genome affect pathogenicity is poorly understood. Whole-genome sequencing (WGS) of the virus with death in SARS-CoV-2 patients is one potential method of early identification of highly pathogenic strains to target for containment. <h4>Methods</h4> We analyzed 7,548 s...
