Fast forward evolution in real time: the rapid spread of SARS-CoV-2 variant of concern lineage B.1.1.7 in Saxony-Anhalt over a period of 5 months

Random mutations and recombinations are the main sources for the genetic diversity in SARS-CoV-2, with mutations in the SARS-CoV-2 spike (S) receptor binding motif (RBM) representing a high potential for the emergence of new putative variants under investigation (VUI) or variants of concern (VOC). I...
