We report the complete genome sequence of a severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) Omicron variant (lineage B.1.1.529) from a Belgian patient with a history of recent travel to Egypt. At the time of writing, this genome constituted the first confirmed case of an infection with the Omicron variant in Europe.
我们报告了一名近期有埃及旅行史的比利时患者所感染的严重急性呼吸综合征冠状病毒2(SARS-CoV-2)奥密克戎变种(谱系B.1.1.529)的完整基因组序列。在撰写本文时,该基因组构成了欧洲首例确诊的奥密克戎变种感染病例。
