📄🧬 New study from Oxford researchers shows 'red list' travel restrictions couldn't halt Omicron's growth in the UK.

Dr. Moritz Kraemer (@MOUGK) emphasises the importance of genomic surveillance in pandemic preparedness.

@prathyushspeaks Thank you Prathyush!

Excited to see our paper now online https://t.co/tVhieL9SeS! By integrating a dataset of ~116,000 Omicron genomic sequences with epi and human mobility data, we investigate the invasion dynamics of Omicron BA.1 into England and its local dissemination at multiple spatial scales.

@vetasadmurtaza Thanks Asad!

#COVID19 Pandemic researchers from @UniofOxford traced the Omicron variant finding:
✈️Its earliest importation to UK was likely before the variant was even identified
🦠400 chains responsible for ~80% of infections arrived before travel restrictions began

This is a hugely collaborative effort by researchers from many institutions across the world. Massive thanks for the contribution from all collaborators, and especially @SCauchemez , @jnaraghwani, @suchard_group, @LemeyLab, @arambaut, @EvolveDotZoo, and @MOUGK for their guidance.

This work, together with previous studies of the Alpha & Delta wave in the UK, provides a unique opportunity for future studies to better understand drivers that shaped their different transmissions patterns and to gain insights for designing more nuanced targeted interventions.
