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.
