Factors influencing SARS-CoV-2 infection rate in Belgian nursing homes’ residents during the first wave of COVID-19 pandemic
was organised testing all NH residents and staff. We analysed data of Flemish NH to identify institutional factors associated with increased SARS-CoV-2 infection rates among NH residents. ...
Strategy and Performance Evaluation of Low-Frequency Variant Calling for SARS-CoV-2 Using Targeted Deep Illumina Sequencing
approach and Illumina sequencing. As anticipated, higher variation and lower sensitivity were observed at lower coverages and allelic frequencies. We found that detection of all low-frequency variants at an ...
Strategy to Develop and Evaluate a Multiplex RT-ddPCR in Response to SARS-CoV-2 Genomic Evolution.
continuously evolving worldwide. In the present study, we proposed a methodology based on an in silico and in vitro analysis. First, we used all information offered by available whole-genome sequencing data for ...
Leveraging of SARS-CoV-2 PCR Cycle Thresholds Values to Forecast COVID-19 Trends.
correlated with daily estimated prevalence for all age-classes. We provide preliminary evidence that trends of Ct values can help to both follow and predict the epidemic’s trajectory at local and national ...
