the variant into the database. it s one thing to ramp up testing in genomic surveillance. it s another thing to share it rapidly and transparently and we need to do muchmore of that global sharing. yeah. the world health organization were grateful, 118 or 116, genomic sequences. does that mean different variants or different examples? there are 118 different genomic sequences of omicron. many of those coming from south africa and some of them coming from botswana and you have one from belgium and israel, as well. so we re getting more information and the rockefeller foundation, pandemic prevention institute is set up to track and monitor this very closely. zee an all-points bulletin or apb out on this variant. i m encouraging scientists around the world to ramp up their sequencing and testing.
