ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT

We sequenced severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) genomes from nasal and throat swabs of a hospitalized patient during the fifth wave of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic in Hong Kong. Genomic characteristics and viral load dynamics of an Omicron BA.2.2 variant before and after molnupiravir treatment were presented.
