5/ The process of adding BDBV to Pathoplexus, from beginning technical work, to EB vote, to launch, took about 7 hours. Weβre proud of our ability to be able to enable data sharing for new outbreaks in such a short time, and hope it enables rapid public health response.

5/ Uploading to Pathoplexus is as easy as dragging-and-dropping files into the web browser - or use the API to upload as part of a workflow.
We will be continuing to improve ANDV on Pathoplexus in the coming days and weeks.
