Respiratory Virus Detection and Sequencing from SARS-CoV-2–Negative Rapid Antigen Tests

Respiratory Virus Detection and Sequencing from SARS-CoV-2–Negative Rapid Antigen Tests

Genomic epidemiology offers insight into the transmission and evolution of respiratory viruses. We used metagenomic sequencing from negative SARS-CoV-2 rapid antigen tests to identify a wide range of respiratory viruses and generate full genome sequences. This process offers a streamlined mechanism...

Description
Summary:Genomic epidemiology offers insight into the transmission and evolution of respiratory viruses. We used metagenomic sequencing from negative SARS-CoV-2 rapid antigen tests to identify a wide range of respiratory viruses and generate full genome sequences. This process offers a streamlined mechanism for broad respiratory virus genomic surveillance.
