⭐️Massive milestone for @kennethbaillie and @GenomiccStudy, who @GenomicsEngland are partnering with to study 🔬 the markers in our DNA 🧬 that can drive severe or asymptomatic response to #COVID19 🦠 Huge thanks to all the participants, and to the many collaborators across 🇬🇧
GenOMICC has recruited its 10,000th patient! Half way to our target of 20,000 severe Covid cases, and 10% of our long-term target of 100,000 critical illness genomes worldwide An incredible effort from nurses, doctors, lab staff and analysts in UK, Ireland, and Canada.
