Ein zentraler Bestandteil einer erfolgreichen Erregersurveillance ist das Verständnis der Verbreitung eines Erregers sowie seiner pathogenen Eigenschaften. Hierbei stellt das Wissen über das Erregergenom eine wichtige Informationsquelle dar. So erlaubt der Nachweis von Mutationen im Genom eines Erregers, Verwandtschaftsbeziehungen zu rekonstruie...

Last update to ENA/Genbank seems to have been 6 weeks ago #22

I've noticed that the last update to ENA/Genbank seems to have been about 6 weeks ago. Before then, you seem to have uploaded regularly to ENA. Is this on purpose?

For sequences that are available through GISAID only, that's unfortuantely not possible.

Thanks for your work!

@corneliusroemer We are planing to continue the ENA publication process soon (ETA is early next week).
