Superspread event
On 2020-10-02 a superspreading event most likely occurred in Reykjavik. 24 days later (2020-10-26) it started to super-spread through the community. A total of 74 copies of this genome (that represents the core of the outbreak), were reported in Gisaid, a proxy for primary transmissions, along with 497 genomes that are one-step mutation with respect to the core genome (a proxy for secondary transmissions). The signature for the likely superspreading event ends at about 2020-11-03, 32 days after it started, with 1710 sequences found in total.
The last sequence of the superspreading event was collected on 2020-11-17.
