Timely intervention and control of a novel coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak at a large skilled nursing facility-San Francisco, California, 2020

Ellora N. Karmarkar et al.

Summary: Describes epidemiologic and genomic characteristics of a SARS-CoV-2 outbreak in a skilled-nursing facility and the strategies that controlled transmission, early implementation of targeted testing and serial PPSs limited SARS-CoV-2 transmission within the SNF.

Epidemiology and precision of SARS-CoV-2 detection following lockdown and relaxation measures

Karoline Leuzinger et al.

Summary: Detecting SARS-CoV-2 is crucial for assessing COVID-19, and manual and automated high-throughput testing were cross-validated. Detection rates decreased after lockdown but increased following relaxation measures, with infected patients being younger than during lockdown.

SARS-CoV-2 outbreak in a tri-national urban area is dominated by a B.1 lineage variant linked to a mass gathering event

Madlen Stange et al.

Summary: This study investigated the early phase of the COVID-19 outbreak in Basel, Switzerland, and found evidence of limited community spread from travelers and family transmissions, as well as extensive cryptic community spread linked to a mass gathering event in the region. By combining whole-genome sequencing and phylogenetic analyses, the study was able to trace the transmission routes and evolution of viral variants during the outbreak.

Global Genomic Analysis of SARS-CoV-2 RNA Dependent RNA Polymerase Evolution and Antiviral Drug Resistance

Alfredo Mari et al.

Summary: Various antiviral treatments for COVID-19, including repurposed drugs, have been investigated. The RNA-dependent RNA polymerase of SARS-CoV-2 has been targeted by inhibitors like remdesivir, but potential resistance mutations are rare and unlikely to destabilize the polymerase. This suggests that monitoring for drug resistance during the pandemic is crucial for global efforts.

Spread of a SARS-CoV-2 variant through Europe in the summer of 2020

Emma B. Hodcroft et al.

Summary: A variant of SARS-CoV-2, 20E (EU1), was identified in Spain in early summer 2020 and later spread across Europe. Despite not showing increased transmissibility, the variant's success can be attributed to rising incidence in Spain, resumption of travel, and lack of effective screening and containment measures. Travel played a significant role in introducing the variant multiple times to European countries during the summer, undermining local efforts to prevent SARS-CoV-2 infection.
