Table 2.
A summary table of early SARS-CoV-2 introductions into the Kenyan coast stratified based on the most frequent lineages.
Lineage | Introductions (approximate) | Percentage of sequences | Date of initial case | Source | Symptoms | Comments |
---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
A | 15 | 6.14 | 4th April 2020 | Household/After entry point | Yes | Returning from Dubai |
B | 5 | 1.96 | 13th April 2020 | Household/After entry point | No | Returning from Dubai |
B.1 | 8 | 74.44 | 17th March 2020 | Local/surveillance | Yes | History of travel |
B.1.1.119 | 4 | 0.98 | 13th May 2020 | Border/Entry | No | Travel history to Tanzania |
B.1.1.33 | 3 | 4.42 | 11th May 2020 | Targeted testing | No | Detected during target testing |
B.4 | 2 | 0.98 | 4th April 2020 | Border/Entry point | No | Two sampled at port of entry, one with travel history to Zambia |
Each row represents a major lineage and the date it was first observed from the sequence data and the suspected entry route (source) into the region, and whether the introductory case was associated with symptoms at the time of sampling. A detailed breakdown of all the lineages is shown in Supplementary Table 3.
