As COVID-19 cases surge, city ramps up genome sequencing

NEW DELHI: Amid an uptick in Coronavirus cases, Delhi has ramped up genome sequencing of samples to detect any new variant, officials said on Saturday.

The state-run ILBS, which has a genome sequencing lab, has the capacity to analyze 350 samples in four to five days, said a doctor at the facility.

Sources said that from the end of 2021 till June 5, the ILBS has tested 5000 to 6000 samples and most of them have tested positive for Omicron. Samples with CT value less than 25 can only be tested, they said.

“We have detected BA.1 and BA.2 and its sublineages till now while we have not found any new variants. It has been reported that a new variant has been found in Maharashtra. The results of some of the samples will come next week,” said a source.
