Discussion: Few strains from Europe and North America since February 2020 have shown the emergence of mutations like
3037C>T (
F106F,
NSP3),
23403A>G (
D614G), and 28881-28883GGG>AAC (
R203K and
G204R, N) in the SARS-CoV-2 genome harboring the
14408C>T (
P323L) mutation within the
RdRP gene, suggesting a probable association or coexistence of
14408C>T (
P323L) and the emerging higher number of novel point mutations compared to viral genomes from Asia.
