Abstract
The “Investigating and translating genomic evidence for public health response to SARSCoV- 2 (INSIDE SARS-CoV-2)” project is part of the initiative “Joint science and technology cooperation call for joint project proposals for the years 2021-2023” promoted by the Italian Ministry of Foreign Affairs and International Cooperation (MAECI) and the Republic of India. To start the project activities, the pandemic response and the epidemiological situation in Italy and in India, together with the genomic surveillance strategies for SARS-CoV-2 virus in the two countries, are here described.
