Abstract

Keeping track of SARS-CoV-2 variants of concern (VOC) is crucial to inform public health efforts and limiting the ongoing pandemic. Here, we describe the first detection of SARSCoV-2 P.1 lineage in Turkey. The fact that new variants can be detected in every geography of the world indicates the need for more whole genome sequencing in order to better understand virus dynamics and take earlier action.
