New preprint: processing SARS-CoV-2 genetics in the cloud Philip Fowler, 31st January 202431st January 2024 0 shares 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.
