The study presents a genomic surveillance program for monitoring SARS-CoV-2 variants in Uruguay, including a PCR method for VOCs, surveillance workflow, and the multiple introductions and community transmission of the SARS-CoV-2 P.1 VOC in Uruguay.
We developed a genomic surveillance program for real-time monitoring of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) variants of concern (VOCs) in Uruguay. We report on a PCR method for SARS-CoV-2 VOCs, the surveillance workflow, and multiple independent introductions and community transmission of the SARS-CoV-2 P.1 VOC in Uruguay.
