The power and limitations of genomics to track COVID-19 outbreaks: a case study from New Zealand

2020-11-03

Abstract excerpt

<h4>Summary</h4> <h4>Background</h4> Real-time genomic sequencing has played a major role in tracking the global spread and local transmission of SARS-CoV-2, contributing greatly to disease mitigation strategies. After effectively eliminating the virus, New Zealand experienced a second outbreak of SARS-CoV-2 in August 2020. During this August outbreak, New Zealand utilised genomic sequencing in a primary role to s...
