These differences can affect how easily the disease spreads, the severity of its symptoms, or how well existing treatments or vaccines are able to combat it.
Understanding different disease strains is crucial for public health efforts. For instance, the emergence of new
The study of sjúkdómastoðn involves genetic sequencing and epidemiological surveillance. By tracking the genetic makeup of
