Genomic study suggests SARS-CoV-2 clade 20C was imported into Japan from the US – News-Medical.Net
A new study describes the outcome of such sequencing efforts in Japan as an important tool towards containing the spread of the infection.
As the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic, caused by the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), continues to take its toll on human life and activity, new mutations and variants have emerged in different populations and regions. As scientists struggle to keep pace with these new strains, the enormous value of genomic sequencing of the viral RNA, and of sharing such data internationally, is becoming clear.
