Risk related to spread of new SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern
ECDC presents the latest available information on the recent emergence of two variants of potential concern discovered in the United Kingdom and another variant identified in South Africa.
ECDC provides guidelines to laboratories on sequencing and proposes a central standardisation process to analyse and report the findings of SARS-CoV-2 genetic characterisations. In the context of the recently identified new variants, and the urgent need to assess the extent to which it is circulating in EU/EEA countries, this report incudes a section on sampling approaches.
