# About



This repository analyzes viral genomes using [Nextstrain](https://nextstrain.org) to understand how SARS-CoV-2, the virus that is responsible for the COVID-19 pandemic, evolves and spreads.



We maintain a number of publicly-available builds, visible at [nextstrain.org/ncov](https://nextstrain.org/ncov).



[See our change log for details about backwards-incompatible or breaking changes to the workflow](https://github.com/nextstrain/ncov/blob/master/docs/change_log.md).

## Use Nextstrain to analyze your SARS-CoV-2 data



**We've written a comprehensive guide to get you up and running in <1 hr. Click on the below links to follow it. It covers:**

8. [**Options for visualizing and sharing results**](https://nextstrain.github.io/ncov/sharing) (including working with sensitive metadata)

9. [**Interpreting your results**](https://nextstrain.github.io/ncov/interpretation)

10. [**Writing a narrative to highlight key findings**](https://nextstrain.github.io/ncov/narratives)

11. [**Running the pipeline starting with multiple inputs**](https://nextstrain.github.io/ncov/multiple_inputs)



## Download formatted datasets



The hCoV-19 / SARS-CoV-2 genomes were generously shared via GISAID. We gratefully acknowledge the Authors, Originating and Submitting laboratories of the genetic sequence and metadata made available through GISAID on which this research is based.



In order to download the GISAID data to run the analysis yourself, please see [this guide](https://nextstrain.github.io/ncov/data-prep).

> Please note that `data/metadata.tsv` is no longer included as part of this repo. However, we provide continually-updated, pre-formatted metadata & fasta files for download through GISAID.



## Read previous Situation Reports

We issued weekly Situation Reports for the first ~5 months of the pandemic. You can find the Reports and their translations [here](https://nextstrain.org/ncov-sit-reps).



## FAQs



- Can't find your sequences in Nextstrain? Check [here](./docs/data_faq.md) for common reasons why your sequences may not be appearing.

You can also use [clades.nextstrain.org](https://clades.nextstrain.org/) to perform some basic quality control on your sequences. If they are flagged by this tool, they will likely be excluded by our pipeline.

- For information about how clades are defined, and the currently named clades, please see [here](./docs/naming_clades.md). To assign clades to your own sequences, you can use our clade assignment tool at [clades.nextstrain.org](https://clades.nextstrain.org/).



## Bioinformatics notes



Site numbering and genome structure uses [Wuhan-Hu-1/2019](https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/nuccore/MN908947) as reference. The phylogeny is rooted relative to early samples from Wuhan. Temporal resolution assumes a nucleotide substitution rate of [8 × 10^-4 subs per site per year](http://virological.org/t/phylodynamic-analysis-176-genomes-6-mar-2020/356). There were SNPs present in the nCoV samples in the first and last few bases of the alignment that were masked as likely sequencing artifacts.
