Detection of a SARS-CoV-2 Beta-like variant in coastal Kenya after more than a year of disappearance

2023-01-20

Abstract excerpt

Continuous genomic surveillance is necessary and important to inform emergence of new severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) variants and resurgence of previous circulating variants. In this study, we provide genomic characterisation of a Beta variant sequence identified through out genomic surveillance platform more than a year since the last reported case of Beta. This variant contained add...
