Don't miss the the @CovidGenomicsUK Science Showcase event TODAY from 13:00 to 15:30 BST

The event include an exciting line up talks showcasing the role of #SARSCoV2 genomics in UK national studies and beyond.

Our latest genomic surveillance study captures what happens during routine care and identifies a SNP cut-off for transmission. The findings also challenge single colony-based investigations, and the widely accepted notion of plasmid spread

What can wastewater tell us about #COVID19?

In our latest blog we explore the use of wastewater to study #SARSCoV2 transmission and what it can teach us about the ongoing pandemic. 😷 https://t.co/TUzrYhg7oH

[Eric Topol @EricTopol]

The United Kingdom has been a guiding light for the pandemic:
1. @CovidGenomicsUK sequenced >206,000 #SARSCoV2 genomes, ~50% of all
2. The large #RECOVERY trials provided pivotal data for dexamethasone, HCQ, convalescent plasma, more
3. @ICNARC is an exemplary national dashboard
