Variant-specific introduction and dispersal dynamics of SARS-CoV-2 in New York City – from Alpha to Omicron
UID: 10619
- Description
- Utilizing genomic sequencing data collected from COVID-19 patients in New York City metropolitan area, investigators produced a comparison of the introduction and dispersal of the main SARS-CoV-2 variants (Alpha, Iota, Delta, and Omicron-BA.1) from 2020 through 2022. The analysis included 5,577 sequences obtained from samples collected as part of genomic surveillance at NYU Langone Health from December 1, 2020 to February 27, 2022; all publicly-available sequences collected within the study area in the GISAID database; and a set of ‘background’ sequences featured in the last North American Nextstrain build that was available on the last collection date of the considered variant in our data set to provide a broader global context of SARS-CoV-2 phylogenetic diversity. In total, the dataset includes 11,758 (Iota), 16,395 (Alpha), 60,019 (Delta), and 32,322 (Omicron-BA.1) sequences.
