Evaluating the Effects of SARS-CoV-2 Spike Mutation D614G on Transmissibility and Pathogenicity

Erik Volz et al.

Summary: The study suggests a positive selection for the SARS-CoV-2 spike protein variant D614G in the UK, but no evidence of differences in COVID-19 mortality or clinical severity in patients infected with this variant. 614G is associated with higher viral load and younger age of patients compared to 614D.

SARS-CoV-2 has been circulating in northern Italy since December 2019: Evidence from environmental monitoring

Giuseppina La Rosa et al.

Summary: Italy had SARS-CoV-2 circulating as early as the end of 2019, with the virus spreading in different geographic regions simultaneously. The study emphasizes the importance of environmental surveillance as an early warning system to monitor virus levels and identify outbreaks before they are officially reported to the healthcare system.

Genome Sequencing of Sewage Detects Regionally Prevalent SARS-CoV-2 Variants

Alexander Crits-Christoph et al.

Summary: Viral genome sequencing, including from wastewater, provides valuable insights into the spread and genetic diversity of SARS-CoV-2 during the COVID-19 pandemic. By analyzing sewage samples, researchers can track specific viral strains and potential introductions of new lineages before they are identified through clinical sequencing.
