Abstract

An eleven-year-old tested positive for SARS-CoV-2 Lambda variant. Sequencing was performed on the Oxford Nanopore and the Illumina NextSeq 500. Both platforms identified all 7 of the synonymous mutations in the sample, while all 28 nonsynonymous mutations were identified from Oxford Nanopore and 20 nonsynonymous mutations were identified from Illumina.
