Title: A dynamic nomenclature proposal for SARS-CoV-2 to assist genomic epidemiology Document date: 2020_4_19
ID: l7ymcyw7_5
Snippet: In an ongoing and rapidly changing epidemic, such as SARS-CoV-2, a nomenclature system can facilitate real-time epidemiology by providing commonly agreed labels to refer to viruses circulating in different parts of the world, thereby revealing the links between outbreaks that share similar virus genomes. Further, a nomenclature system is needed to describe virus lineages that vary in phenotypic or antigenic properties (although it must be stresse.....
Document: In an ongoing and rapidly changing epidemic, such as SARS-CoV-2, a nomenclature system can facilitate real-time epidemiology by providing commonly agreed labels to refer to viruses circulating in different parts of the world, thereby revealing the links between outbreaks that share similar virus genomes. Further, a nomenclature system is needed to describe virus lineages that vary in phenotypic or antigenic properties (although it must be stressed that at present there is no evidence of such variation among currently available SARS-CoV-2 strains).
