In Andalusia (Spain), a coordinated genomic surveillance circuit was established to systematically sequence and analyze viral genomes across the region. This initiative organizes sample collection through 27 hospitals, which act as regional hubs within their respective health districts. Sequencing is performed at three reference laboratories, with downstream data analysis and reporting centralized at a bioinformatics platform. From 2021 to 2025, over 42,500 SARS-CoV-2 genomes were sequenced, enabling the identification of major variants and their evolutionary dynamics. The circuit tracked the transition from Alpha and Delta to successive Omicron waves, including both recombinant and non-recombinant clades. The integration of genomic and epidemiological data facilitated rapid variant detection, outbreak investigation, and public health decision making. This surveillance framework at a regional granularity demonstrates the feasibility of large-scale sequencing within a decentralized healthcare system and has expanded to monitor other pathogens, reinforcing its value for epidemic preparedness. Continued investment in genomic surveillance is critical for tracking viral evolution, guiding interventions, and mitigating future public health threats.This study has been funded by the European Union’s EU4Health programme (EU4HEALTH-101113109), and the HERA incubator plan (ECDC/HERA/2021/024 ECD.12241).
