Descripción
Sumario:The coding-complete genome sequence of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) was obtained from 39 nasopharyngeal swab samples collected in January 2022 from Dhaka, Bangladesh, during the 3rd wave of the COVID-19 pandemic, using Illumina MiniSeq sequencing technology. Sequence analysis showed that all of them belonged to the WHO-designated variant of concern (VOC) Omicron. The presence of different sublineages of Omicron was noted, among which sublineage BA.2 (Nextstrain clade 21L) was the most prevalent one.
