Genomic Evolution of SARS-CoV-2 Virus in Immunocompromised Patient, Ireland

We examined virus genomic evolution in an immunocompromised patient with prolonged severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 infection. Genomic sequencing revealed genetic variation during infection: 3 intrahost mutations and possible superinfection with a second strain of the virus. Prolonge...
