Genomic sequencing performed by The Jackson Laboratory
JJAX’s COVID-19 testing laboratory in Connecticut, which has already processed more than 1.5 million samples using its PCR test for SARS-CoV-2 virus, is working to greatly expand genomic surveillance for Connecticut residents.
Breakdown of number of each variant sequenced by week. The “Other” category includes SARS-COV-2 variants not classified as variants of concern (VOC) or variants of interest (VOI) by the WHO.
Top graph shows total counts of each variant sequenced since the beginning of our project. Bottom graph has totals from the most recent week.
The data are organized by the month that the sample was collected, starting from the first full month in January 2021. It is important to note that not all samples positive for SARS-CoV-2 are sequenced. Many samples were selected for sequencing based on pre-screening for potential variants of concern based on targeted genotyping assays. Since not all samples are sequenced, the information presented is incomplete and does not represent all potential COVID-19 cases caused by variant strains
