Genetic diversity of SARS-CoV-2 infections in Ghana from 2020-2021

Genetic diversity of SARS-CoV-2 infections in Ghana from 2020-2021

In this genomic epidemiology study from Ghana, the authors sequence ~1,000 SARS-CoV-2 whole genomes from March 2020 to September 2021. They describe changes in the predominant circulating lineages over time and infer how variants of concern were likely introduced into the country.
