None of the SASR-CoV-2 Mutations Currently Documented Appear to Increase Its Transmissibility – Technology Networks
Researchers have so far identified 12,706 mutations in SARS-CoV-2. For 398 of the mutations, there is strong evidence that they have occurred repeatedly and independently….
The analysis of virus genomes from over 46,000 people with COVID-19 from 99 countries is published today in Nature Communications.
First and corresponding author Dr Lucy van Dorp (UCL Genetics Institute) said: The number of SARS-CoV-2 genomes being generated for scientific research is staggering.
