    Please note, not all rigor criteria are appropriate for all manuscripts.

    Table 1: Rigor

    EthicsIRB: Sample and data collection: The research project (Protocol #1603078) was reviewed and approved by the MA Department of Public Health Institutional Review Board and covered by a reliance agreement at the Broad Institute.
    Consent: Residual samples were collected and sequenced under a waiver of consent by the MADPH IRB.
    Field Sample Permit: Some study staff maintain dual affiliations with Mass General Brigham and the Broad Institute, but this research was conducted solely at the Broad Institute, Harvard University, and MADPH.
    Sex as a biological variablenot detected.
    Randomizationnot detected.
    Blindingnot detected.

    suggested: (NCBI BioProject, RRID:SCR_004801)
    We used LoFreq version 2.1.5 to call intrahost single nucleotide variants (iSNVs) with default parameters (minimum read depth ≥10, strand bias <85%, and default iSNV quality scoring)17.

    About SciScore

    SciScore is an automated tool that is designed to assist expert reviewers by finding and presenting formulaic information scattered throughout a paper in a standard, easy to digest format. SciScore checks for the presence and correctness of RRIDs (research resource identifiers), and for rigor criteria such as sex and investigator blinding. For details on the theoretical underpinning of rigor criteria and the tools shown here, including references cited, please follow this link.
