En date du 21\u00a0avril\u00a02020, il y a plus de 2,5\u00a0millions de cas de COVID-19\u00a0dans le monde, dont 40\u00a0000 au Canada. On s\u2019attend \u00e0 ce que la COVID-19 soit directement responsable de la mort de beaucoup plus de personnes, mais comprendre la propagation du virus contribuera aux efforts d\u2019att\u00e9nuation. Les mutations sont courantes et attendues dans les g\u00e9nomes du coronavirus. Nous pouvons tirer parti de ces mutations pour suivre la propagation des virus dans la communaut\u00e9, et ainsi fournir des renseignements d\u2019importance vitale pour la sant\u00e9 publique sur la propagation et les sources potentielles de la maladie. Au moment de la r\u00e9daction, il y a plus de 3\u00a0095\u00a0cas en Alberta. Afin d\u2019acc\u00e9l\u00e9rer la production de cette information g\u00e9n\u00e9tique, nous travaillerons avec le Centre for Health Genomics and Informatics (CHGI) de l\u2019University of Calgary pour g\u00e9n\u00e9rer rapidement des s\u00e9quences g\u00e9n\u00e9tiques de plus de 1\u00a0900\u00a0de ces virus (nous pr\u00e9voyons d\u2019autres cas avec le temps). Entre-temps, nous validerons aussi les m\u00e9thodes automatis\u00e9es pour s\u00e9quencer rapidement les g\u00e9nomes viraux au laboratoire de sant\u00e9 publique de fa\u00e7on continue. Ce processus d\u2019automatisation peut \u00eatre d\u00e9ploy\u00e9 dans d\u2019autres laboratoires \u00e0 travers le monde. L\u2019information g\u00e9n\u00e9tique que nous g\u00e9n\u00e9rons \u00e0 partir des virus de la COVID-19 de l\u2019Alberta sera analys\u00e9e conjointement avec des milliers d\u2019autres virus de la COVID-19 de partout dans le monde. Ces informations aideront la sant\u00e9 publique \u00e0 mieux comprendre la dynamique de la propagation virale en Alberta; on pourra ainsi \u00e9laborer des politiques plus efficaces pour emp\u00eacher la maladie de se propager, et fournir de l\u2019information importante pour le diagnostic ainsi que pour la mise au point de traitements et de vaccins.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
