Analytical validity of nanopore sequencing for rapid SARS-CoV-2 genome analysis

Nanopore sequencing (ONT) has been used in SARS-CoV-2 studies, however adoption of ONT for SARS-CoV-2 surveillance has been limited due to common concerns around sequencing accuracy. Here, the authors perform a comprehensive evaluation of ONT analytical performance on 157 matched SARS-CoV-2-positive...
