Sequencing seeks to stay ahead of new COVID-19 surges
Sequencing has been an essential tool for the development of strategies and therapeutics in the fight against COVID-19, and sequencing-based rapid and high-throughput diagnostics for COVID-19 are in development. Sequencing technology suppliers are collaborating with researchers to develop sequencing-based diagnostic tools. For example, several groups are using Illumina's next-generation sequencing (NGS) technology to develop ultrahigh-throughput COVID-19 diagnostic testing.

Vendors struggle to supply RNA extraction kits due to COVID-19
SARS-CoV-2, the coronavirus responsible for the COVID-19 illness, encodes its genome in a single-stranded RNA. In vitro diagnostics of COVID-19 are done by quantitative PCR (qPCR), but first RNA must be extracted from a patient sample and reverse transcribed.
