🚨 New paper in Eurosurveillance - @karatasmustafa.bsky.social
We used shotgun metagenomics on indoor air in a Belgian daycare to track respiratory, enteric & skin viruses.
👉 40/42 samples contained human viruses—even when kids seemed healthy!

New paper out!

We sampled indoor air for a year in a Belgian daycare and used shotgun metagenomics to track viruses. We recovered many viral genomes of interest.

What would you sample next?
