  • In this genomic epidemiology study from Ghana, the authors sequence ~1,000 SARS-CoV-2 whole genomes from March 2020 to September 2021. They describe changes in the predominant circulating lineages over time and infer how variants of concern were likely introduced into the country.

  • Garcia-Senosiain et al developed an in vitro opsonic phagocytosis (OP) assay using peripheral blood leukocytes that enabled quantification of the contribution of each phagocytic cell type in the OP of Plasmodium falciparum blood-stage merozoites, which have been associated with malaria protection. Using patient samples from Ghana and India, they demonstrate that peripheral blood neutrophils are the main phagocytes of P. falciparum blood-stage merozoites
