The Human Genome Project finished in 2003 with an almost “complete” first draft of the human genome sequence. It was about 95% complete — with over 150,000 gaps of DNA left to be sequenced. Scientists are closing these gaps, with only about 100 left! https://bit.ly/32sAXg0 | National Human Genome Research Institute

The study of SARS-CoV-2 whole genome sequencing data has led to many important findings about this pathogen, and we will need more sequence data from samples from all over the world in order to come up with effective approaches to control and prevent COVID-19 infections. Watch this show for expert opinions on genome sequencing, why it is crucial to tackle Covid and find out what you need to do to self-register for a vaccine on the CoWin app and what the process of registering for the inoculation
