cord-331701-izkz1hz4	Eden, John-Sebastian	An emergent clade of SARS-CoV-2 linked to returned travellers from Iran	2020-03-17		.txt	text/plain	1271	70	50	Phylogenetic analyses of whole genome sequencing data identified a distinct SARS-CoV-2 clade linked to travellers returning from Iran to Australia and New Zealand. This study highlights potential viral diversity driving the epidemic in Iran, and underscores the power of rapid genome sequencing and public data sharing to improve the detection and management of emerging infectious diseases. Herein, we show that the genomic analyses of SARS-CoV-2 strains from Australian returned travellers with COVID-19 disease may provide important insights into viral diversity present in regions currently lacking genomic data. However, while we cannot completely discount that the cases in Australia and New Zealand came from other sources including China, our phylogenetic analyses, as well as epidemiological (recent travel to Iran) and clinical data (date of symptom onset), provide evidence that this clade of SARS-CoV-2 is linked to the Iranian epidemic, from where genomic data is currently lacking.	./cache/cord-331701-izkz1hz4.txt	./txt/cord-331701-izkz1hz4.txt
