Genomic surveillance of SARS-CoV-2 in Puerto Rico enabled early detection and tracking of variants

Santiago et al. sequenced SARS-CoV-2 genomes sampled in Puerto Rico between March 2020 and September 2021. Phylogenetic analyses found multiple importations that increased infections and that variant turnover dynamics were similar to those seen in the USA.
