A coronavirus disease (COVID-19) genome surveillance has been conducted at four international airports in Japan, revealing a potential imported COVID-19 risk from multiple countries. The quarantine surveillance based on genome sequencing can enhance sequencing efforts worldwide, as returning travelers may serve as excellent sentinels for the global pandemic.
在日本的四个国际机场进行了冠状病毒疾病(COVID-19)的基因组监测,结果显示来自多个国家的潜在输入性 COVID-19 风险。基于基因组测序的检疫监测可以加强全球范围内的测序工作,因为返回的旅行者可能是全球大流行的优秀哨兵。
