Given the recent interest in monkeypox, here's a few things that people should know about poxviruses from a virologist point of view (1/14)

BA.2, driven to near-zero levels by BA.5, still haunt us, spawning monstrous viruses that, after vanishing for months, burst forth, gnarled & hideous, in novel antibody armor. The latest, which I found skulking around India, has 13 spike mutations. 1/28 github.com/cov-lineages/pang…

It was a pleasure to present on the success of our “Pathogen Genomics an introduction for clinicians” training day at the inaugural COP meeting @t3connect @sangerinstitute wouldn’t have been possible without a great team. @CarinaBrehony @daniel_hare1

What’s new in the world of SARS-CoV-2 accessory proteins? In this 🧵, I’ll recap their evolution so far & describe a possible new trend: partial or total deletion of ORF7a, ORF7b, & ORF8—particularly in GW.5.1.1, an XBB.1.19 + FLip lineage—plus an ORF9b/N bonus TRS surprise! 1/45

We learned from Morten that the SARS-CoV-2 sequencing and surveillance lift in Denmark was just insane! Practically every case in 2021 sequenced within a few days, immediately linked to any metadata imaginable and all of it informed national policy in real-time 🤯 🤯 🤯
Replying to @hpscireland
Dr Morten Rasmussen from @SSI_dk has kicked off the afternoon session with a view from Denmark - “Establishing SARS-CoV-2 surveillance in Denmark: Lessons from a pandemic”
