Whole-genome sequencing of SARS-COV-2 showed wide spread of B.1.525 in February 2021 in Libya

2021-07-06

Abstract excerpt

Alpha (B.1.1.7) SARS-COV-2 variant was detected in September 2020 in minks and humans in Denmark and UK. This variant has several mutations in the spike region (S) which could increase the transmissibility of the virus 43-90% over previously circulating variants. The National Center for Disease Control (NCDC) announced on 24th February 2021 a 25% frequency of B.1.1.7 strain in Libya using a reverse-transcriptase q...
