Superspread event

On 2021-02-13 a superspreading event most likely occurred in Orebro. 37 days later (2021-03-22) it started to super-spread through the community. A total of 40 copies of this genome (that represents the core of the outbreak), were reported in Gisaid, a proxy for primary transmissions, along with 135 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 2021-03-27, 42 days after it started, with 1537 sequences found in total.

The last sequence of the superspreading event was collected on 2021-04-16.

The sequence of this event has been classified as Alpha.
