摘要

Only two weeks ago, when the COVID-19 outbreak caused by the novel coronavirus, SARS-CoV-2 (previously named 2019-nCoV), started to look dangerous nationwide, we published an editorial in this space urging the instant posting of the population genomic data of the viruses [1].Because these data are of grave significance to global human health, such an urgent call is justified and has been repeated elsewhere [2].To our disappointment, the rate of releasing such data seems to have slowed down, when the need for them has become more acute.
