    Abstract The on-going emergence of the Omicron BA.2.86 variant is one of the major events in SARS-CoV-2 genetic evolution that remain enigmatic regarding the overall virus mutation rate, together with the emergence of the initial Omicron variant, BA.1. Indeed, the genomes of the Omicron BA.2.86 lineage, an offspring of the second major Omicron subvariant, BA.2, harbor 39 additional mutations in the spike compared to this ancestor. Here we comment on the phylogeny of BA.2.86, on the positions, and frequencies in other SARS-CoV-2, of mutations in its spike, and on the structural model of this protein that concentrates most of BA.2.86 additional mutations.

    Abstract The emergence of the Coronavirus Disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has fostered the use of high-throughput techniques to sequence the entire severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) genome and track its evolution. The present study proposes a rapid and relatively less expensive sequencing protocol for 384 samples by adapting the use of an Illumina NovaSeq library to an Illumina MiSeq flow cell instrument. The SARS-CoV-2 genome sequences obtained with Illumina NovaSeq and those obtained using MiSeq instruments were compared with the objective to validate the new, modified protocol. A total of 356 (94.6%) samples yielded interpretable sequences using the modified Illumina COVIDSeq protocol, with an average coverage of 91.6%. By comparison, 357 (94.9%) samples yielded interpretable sequences with the standard COVIDSeq protocol, with an average coverage of 95.6%. Our modified COVIDSeq protocol could save 14,155 euros per run and yield results from 384 samples in 53.5 h, compared to four times 55.5 h with the standard Illumina MiSeq protocol. The modified COVIDSeq protocol thus provides high quality results comparable to those obtained with the standard COVIDSeq protocol, four times faster, while saving money.

    Abstract Great concerns have been raised about SARS-CoV-2 variants over the past six months. At the end of 2020, an increasing incidence of spike substitutions Q677H/P was described in the USA, which involved six independent lineages. We searched for changes to this amino acid in the sequence database of SARS-CoV-2 genomes obtained at the IHU Méditerranée Infection (Marseille, France) from 3634 patients sampled between February 2020 and April 2021. In seven genomes (0.2%), we found a deletion of five amino acids at spike positions 675–679 (QTQTN) including Q677, and in 76 genomes (2.3%) we found a Q677H substitution. The 83 genomes were classified in ten different Pangolin lineages. Genomes with a spike Q677 deletion were obtained from respiratory samples collected in six cases between 28 March 2020 and 12 October 2020 and in one case on 1 February 2021. The Q677H substitution was found in genomes all obtained from respiratory samples collected from 19 January 2021 and were classified in seven different lineages. Most of these genomes (41 cases) were of UK variant. Two others were classified in the B.1.160 Pangolin lineage (Marseille-4 variant) which was first detected in July 2020 in our institute but was devoid of this substitution until 19 January 2021. Also, eight genomes were classified in the A.27/Marseille-501 lineage which was first detected in our institute in January 2021 and which either harboured or did not harbour the Q677H substitution. Thus, the spike Q677H substitution should be considered as another example of convergent evolution, as it is the case of spike substitutions L18F, E484K, L452R, and N501Y which also independently appeared in various lineages.

    Abstract Objectives: Influenza is frequent among pilgrims participating in the Grand Magal de Touba (GMT), in Senegal, with a potential to spread to contacts when they return home.
    Methods: Ill pilgrims consulting at a health care center in Mbacké city close to Touba during the 2021 GMT, pilgrims returning to Dielmo and Ndiop villages, and patients who did not travel to Touba and consulted at health care centers in these two villages in 2021 were tested for the influenza virus by polymerase chain reaction on nasopharyngeal samples. Next-generation sequencing and comparative and phylogenetic analyses of influenza A virus genomes were performed.
    Results: A total of 62 of 685 patients tested positive for influenza A virus, including 34 of 53 who were consulted in Mbacké in late September, six of 129 pilgrims who returned home in early October, and 20 of 42 villagers from October 3 to 29. A total of 27 genomes were obtained. Four clusters were observed based on the phylogenetic analyses, suggesting that Mbacké patients and returned pilgrims may have shared closely related viral strains with patients inhabiting the villages who did not participate in the GMT.
    Conclusions: Villagers in Ndiop and Dielmo may have been infected with viral strains originating from the GMT and possibly imported by pilgrims who returned from the GMT.

    Abstract The rapid genetic evolution of the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) during the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) pandemic has greatly challenged public health authorities worldwide, including in Mauritania. Despite the presence of the virus in Mauritania, only one study described its genomic variation during the course of the epidemic. The purpose of the present study was to document the genomic pattern of SARS-CoV-2 variants from clinical isolates during the COVID-19 outbreak in Mauritania, from September to November 2021. The whole genomes from 54 SARS-CoV-2 strains detected in nasopharyngeal swabs with a cycle threshold value ≤ 30 were successfully sequenced using next-generation sequencing (NGS) and the Illumina protocol. The mean genome coverage (±standard deviation) was 96.8% (±3.7). The most commonly identified clade was 21J (57.4%), followed by 21D (16.7%), 20A (11.1%), and 20B (9.2%). At the level of lineages, the majority of the samples were Delta variants with the sub-lineage AY.34 (or B.1.617.2.34). Among the 54 SARS-CoV-2 isolates that were successfully sequenced, 33 (61.1%) came from vaccinated individuals, and 21 (38.9%) were from unvaccinated individuals. Several SARS-CoV-2 variants were present in Mauritania between September and November 2021. As Mauritania, like many West African countries, is resource-limited regarding viral genome sequencing facilities, establishment of mutualized sub-regional sequencing platforms will be necessary to ensure continuous monitoring of mutations in viral genomes and track potential reduction in COVID-19 vaccine efficacy, increased transmissibility, and disease severity.

    Abstract Background: Most low- and middle-income countries do not have a mature prehospital system limiting access to definitive care. This study sought to describe the current state of the prehospital system in Senegal and offer recommendations aimed at improving system capacity and population access to definitive care.
    Methods: Structured interviews were conducted with key informants in various regions throughout the country using qualitative and quantitative techniques. A standardized questionnaire was generated using needs assessment forms and system frameworks. Descriptive statistics were performed for quantitative data analysis, and qualitative data was consolidated and presented using ATLAS.ti.
    Results: Two (20%) of the studied regions, Dakar and Saint-Louis, had a mature prehospital system in place, including dispatch centers and teams of trained personnel utilizing equipped ambulances. 80% of the studied regions lacked an established prehospital system. The vast majority of the population relied on the fire department for transport to a healthcare facility. The ambulances in rural regions were not part of a formal prehospital system, were not equipped with life-support supplies, and were limited to inter-facility transfers.
    Conclusions: While Dakar and Saint-Louis have mature prehospital systems, the rest of the country is served by the fire department. There are significant opportunities to further strengthen the prehospital system in rural Senegal by training the fire department in basic life support and first aid, maintaining cost efficiency, and building on existing national resources. This has the potential to significantly improve access to definitive care and outcomes of emergent illness in the Senegalese community.

    Abstract In the present study, we propose a high-throughput sequencing protocol using aNextera XT Library DNA kit on an Illumina MiSeq instrument. We made major modifications to this library preparation in order to multiplex 384 samples in a single Illumina flow cell. To validate our protocol, we compared the sequences obtained with the modified Illumina protocol to those obtained with the GridION Nanopore protocol. For the modified Illumina protocol, our results showed that 94.9% (357/376) of the sequences were interpretable, with a viral genome coverage between 50.5% and 99.9% and an average depth of 421×. For the GridION Nanopore protocol, 94.6% (356/376) of the sequences were interpretable, with a viral genome coverage between 7.0% and 98.6% and an average depth of 2123×. The modified Illumina protocol allows for gaining EUR 4744 and returning results of 384 samples in 53.5 h versus four times 55.5 h with the standard Illumina protocol. Our modified MiSeq protocol yields similar genome sequence data as the GridION Nanopore protocol and has the advantage of being able to handle four times more samples simultaneously and hence is much less expensive.
