Genomic Surveillance of SARS-COV-2 reveals diverse circulating variant lineages in Nairobi and Kiambu County, Kenya

2022-05-13

Abstract excerpt

<title>Abstract</title> <p>Genomic surveillance and identification of SARS-CoV-2 outbreaks are important in understanding the genetic diversity, phylogeny, and lineages of SAR-CoV-2. Genomic surveillance provides insights into circulating infections, and insights into the robustness and design of vaccines and other infection control approaches. We sequenced 56 SARS-CoV-2 isolates from a Kenyan clinical population...
