Results from LimitationRecognizer: We detected the following sentences addressing limitations in the study:A limitation of our study is that we were not able to test the contacts of the index person. Genome sequencing of viral isolates from clinical samples taken 196 days apart allowed us to observe changes in the SARS-CoV-2 genome over this prolonged time period. Studies investigating whether viral strains with the recurrent deletions associated with immune escape observed here can be effectively transmitted at the population level are urgently needed. Implementation of contact tracing, particularly for infections with longer generation intervals as described here, and continued monitorization of SARS-CoV-2 recent cases in Brazil will help to control community transmission of SARS-CoV-2 variants with altered epidemiological characteristics. In conclusion, the present study demonstrates that viable and replication competent SARS-CoV-2 virus can be recovered from pharyngeal mucosa and saliva at prolonged intervals in an immunocompromised patient. The present observations may be pertinent to the further refinement of prevention and transmission protocols.
