The molecular clock analysis estimated a clusters divergence approximately one month before the first patient identification, supporting the hypothesis that different SARS-CoV-2 strains spread all over the world at different time, but their presence became evident only in late February along with Italian epidemic emergence. A dataset of 41 genome assemblies of Sars-Cov-2 strains isolated in Italy between 20 February 2020 and 30 March 2020 were retrieved from GISAID database 12 , (see Supplementary Table 1 for details). All patients were resident in Lombardy Region, distributed in different provinces, as reported in table X: in particular, the category 'Milano' contains also patients hospitalized for non-COVID-19 disease, for whom SARS-CoV-2 hospital acquisition was supposed; in addition, HSacco-20, in 'Other' category, was a nurse living in Bergamo and working at Lodi Hospital. ./cache/cord-287101-k3zq75zc.txt ./txt/cord-287101-k3zq75zc.txt
