Abstract
Here, using genomic approaches, Rockett et al. identify Omicron and Delta SARS-CoV-2 co-infections in two adults, highlighting the usefulness of genomic surveillance for the timely recognition of co-infections in situations when different variants of the virus are circulating in the community.
