Whole genome sequencing (WGS) has revolutionised public health microbiology. Tracking the transmission of pathogens between their natural reservoir to humans is critical for outbreak (epidemic/pandemic) detection.
Using an example of a bacterial or viral pathogen describe and explain the following: i. the natural reservoir and characteristics of the pathogen, ii. how genetics and WGS could be used to facilitate pathogen detection, iii. how WGS could be used for outbreak detection and surveillance purposes (give an example of an outbreak), iv. the anticipated future applications, limitations, and challenges associated with the use of WGS in public health microbiology.
