PRL has encountered a small number of BA.2 Omicron variants. Our PCR tests remain effective against SARS-CoV-2 and known variants. <\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n Epidemic response laboratory reliable, low-cost, rapid PCR and whole-genome sequencing capabilities are critical for continued vigilance against new SARS-CoV-2 variants. To date, our molecular PCR tests continue to accurately detect SARS-CoV-2 and its known variants, including the \u201cstealth\u201d Omicron subvariant BA.2. As of January 30, our sequencing pipeline has encountered a small number of BA.2 variants, and we continue to report processed genomes to public databases.
