In this constantly evolving infographic, you can follow the lineages of the pandemic-causing coronavirus COVID-19 that are circulating in Brazil.

As they are quite simple, viruses like SARS-CoV-2 change much faster than other microorganisms like bacteria and fungi, and are classified into lineages by small differences in their genetic material.

The infographic is the result of collaboration between researchers from all over Brazil and the GISAID initiative, enabling real-time curatorship and visualization of the phylogeny of deposited Brazilian data. Wait for the data to load.
