+<h2>May. 11, 2021 &nbsp;&nbsp; Vaccines track available for the SARS-CoV-2 Genome Browser</h2>
+<p>
+We are happy to announce the release of the
+<a href="../cgi-bin/hgTrackUi?db=wuhCor1&c=NC_045512v2&g=vaccines">Vaccines</a> track for the UCSC
+SARS-CoV-2 Genome Browser. This track shows the alignment of three different mRNA vaccine sequences
+to the coronavirus genome:
+</p>
+<ol>
+  <li>
+    The BioNTech/Pfizer BNT-162b2 sequence as published by the World Health Organization (WHO)</li>
+  <li>
+    The reconstructed BioNTech/Pfizer BNT-162b2 RNA as sequenced by the
+    <a href="https://firelab.sites.stanford.edu/" target="_blank">Andrew Fire lab</a>, Stanford
+    University School of Medicine</li>
+  <li>
+    The Moderna mRNA-1273 sequence as sequenced by the
+    <a href="https://firelab.sites.stanford.edu/" target="_blank">Andrew Fire lab</a>, Stanford
+    University School of Medicine</li>
+</ol>
+<p>
+The protein encoded by the three sequences has two AA substitutions compared to the SARS-CoV-2 S
+glycoprotein. Variations: S:K986P and S:V987P in the vaccine sequence. See also:

+be found on the <a href="../cgi-bin/hgTrackUi?db=wuhCor1&c=NC_045512v2&g=vaccines">description
+page</a>.
+<p>
+We want to thank the <a href="https://twitter.com/Fire__Lab" target="_blank">Andrew Fire lab</a>,
+Stanford University School of Medicine for providing the sequencing data of these vaccines. We also
+want to thank Hiram Clawson and Jairo Navarro for the creation and release of this track.</p>
