New preprint: processing SARS-CoV-2 genetics in the cloud Philip Fowler, 31st January 202431st January 2024 In this preprint, we describe how in July 2022 for two weeks seven sites in six continents uploaded raw genetics files derived from sequencing SARS-CoV-2 clinical samples to our cloud-based platform, GPAS. Overall 5,436 samples were uploaded to GPAS and, unsurprisingly at that time, various Omicron lineages dominated. More surprisingly was the finding that highly similar SARS-CoV-2 genomes could be found in multiple continents, indicative of the rapid rate that the virus was transported around the world.
