#COVIDー19 continues to spread rapidly, but hard-working laboratories around the world are keeping up with #SARSCoV2 sequences from 🇯🇵 Japan 🇺🇸 USA 🇨🇳 China 🇩🇪 Germany 🇮🇹 Italy and right now NZ 🇳🇿uploaded GISAID Initiative just in last 24 hours!! theguardian.com/world/2020/mar… Jacinda Ardern


nextstrain.org/ncov now updated with the first sequence from New Zealand 🇳🇿. The NZ seq groups with other sequences with travel history to Iran (circled), as expected. Sequenced by @ESRNewZealand Matt Storey @Joepdl @sciolato using ARTIC Network & #RAMPART. Data via GISAID Initiative

Super-useful filters now available on GISAID Initiative 👏🏻 permit the selection of #SARSCOV2 genomes by clade and lineage using PANGOLIN. Additionally, filter for specific mutation using #CoVsurver 👏🏻👏🏻 Brilliant job #gisaidteam! Áine O'Toole arambaut A*STAR Research SebastianMaurerStroh


With ~1M covid-19 cases now confirmed on the continent, Institut Pasteur Madagascar🇲🇬 in Madagascar joins growing list of African countries sequencing and releasing #SARSCoV2 WGS Sequences available GISAID Initiative typed with PANGOLIN @AAS_AESA Tom Kariuki, PhD African Science Initiative African Academy of Sciences


67 coronavirus genomes now available GISAID Initiative from Moldova, Montenegro & Suriname as with so much covid-19 work a result of truly global collaboration (institutions in Germany/Italy/UK/Netherlands) will allow insights into arrival, spread & monitoring of effectiveness of NPIs


Really proud of the team that developed this application! Albert Chen AC in the @Devermanlab with Shing and Kevin Altschuler. We also want to thank our beta testers and GISAID Initiative and all of the laboratories who are submitting SARS-CoV-2 genome sequences.

Approx. 7000 SARS-CoV-2 sequences have been uploaded to GISAID Initiative by #CDGN member laboratories! Amazing efforts by all public health laboratories who are using pathogen genomics to tackle this pandemic 👏👏 #CDGN #Australia #NewZealand #genomics


In a silver lining to this historic public health crisis, researchers from 117 nations have shared via GISAID #coronavirus genomes and associated data from 100,000 cases of #COVID-19.

El #InDRE desarrolló un diagnóstico molecular del virus SARS-CoV-2 que ha permitido obtener la secuencia genómica y compartir esta información internacionalmente a través del GISAID Initiative.


Pleased to give #Tonga Health Minister Amelia Afuha’amango Tu’ipulotu & 🇹🇴 Nurse Choir the World Health Organization (WHO) Director-General Award - they lifted our spirits & touched our hearts with today's performance at #WHA73, to mark the Year of the Nurse & the Midwife.
