A novel coronavirus, severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), was first identified in Wuhan, China, as the alleged cause of a cluster of severe pneumonia cases (1) . Here, we describe the full-genome sequence of a SARS-CoV-2 strain (SARS-CoV-2/ human/DEU/HH-1/2020) isolated from a female patient with COVID-19. The isolate was obtained from an upper respiratory tract specimen (oropharyngeal swab) from a 62-year-old woman who was part of a small local cluster of COVID-19 cases, originating from a household contact who likely acquired the virus while traveling in Italy. The samples after trimming contained 18,369,904 high-quality paired-end reads, with 61,312 ϫ 2 reads (e.g., 122,624 reads) mapping to the reference Wuhan-Hu-1 sequence (GenBank accession number NC_045512.2) (6). ./cache/cord-277025-gmy51dx4.txt ./txt/cord-277025-gmy51dx4.txt
