How Honduras managed to carry out genomic sequencing for the first time
June 2023
When microbiologist Soany Ávilez was selected to implement the genomic sequencing of the SARS-CoV-2 virus in Honduras, she was amazed. In the wake of the pandemic, Soany had started working at the National Virology Laboratory in 2020 performing PCR tests. At that time, genomic sequencing to detect circulating variants of the virus that causes COVID-19 was carried out outside the country. But a project to provide Honduras with the capabilities to do it in situ and obtain faster results was being developed with technical support from the Pan American Health Organization (PAHO) and financial support from the United States Government.
Although she lacked knowledge on the subject, Soany remembers that she longed for the opportunity to work in sequencing. "When they chose us (her and her partner Karla Romero) to implement sequencing in the country and move the area forward, I couldn't believe it," she says.
Genomic surveillance allows us to know the evolution of viruses and other pathogens as they change over time. Knowing those changes or mutations that can modify its transmissibility and severity, allows us to guide public health measures. During the pandemic, it was a key strategy to monitor the behavior of SARS-CoV-2 and a technique that is being integrated into the surveillance of other pathogens.
Karla Romero, the other microbiologist in charge of genomic surveillance, acknowledges that the implementation of sequencing in Honduras has been "a great challenge" that required a lot of "sacrifice and commitment" both inside and outside the laboratory.
The sequencing area had to be created from scratch. In 2022, the authorities selected and conditioned a space within the National Virology Laboratory. With the support of PAHO, a sequencer, supplies, reagents, and furniture were purchased, and Soany and Karla were trained in bioinformatics and genomic sequencing at the Gorgas Memorial Institute in Panama.
“All with the aim of strengthening the capacities for genomic surveillance of SARS-CoV-2 and other pathogens in Honduras,” says Gabriela Rodriguez Segura, coordinator of the PAHO Project for the Consolidation of Genomic Sequencing Capacities in Honduras. Before these capacities were created at the local level, samples to determine the variants circulating in the country were sent to the laboratories of the Regional Network for Genomic Surveillance of COVID-19 (COVIGEN) created by PAHO to support countries without capacity to carry out sequencing in its territory.
In March 2023, the effort paid off and excitement took over the National Virology Laboratory when, after several attempts, the first sequencing of SARS-COV-2 in the country was successfully carried out. “We couldn't believe it,” says Soany. "We feel very happy because it was a great challenge and the result made us feel fulfilled."
On March 21, 2023, the results were obtained and it was the first time that the XBB sublineage of the omicron variant was detected in the country and by Honduran health professionals. For Karla, the key was “not to give up in the face of the biggest challenge”.
"It is a milestone for the country that genomic sequencing is being carried out," says Dr. Mitzi Castro, head of the National Health Surveillance Laboratory of Honduras. “It is a historic moment because we are starting from here to carry out future genomic surveillance of other pathogens of sanitary interest to the country,” she adds.
According to Dr. Castro, the country now has state-of-the-art technology. "The laboratory is at the forefront, and that is a success and a source of pride, for which we thank all those who have contributed their bit so that Honduras is not left behind."

After a some very wet weather we managed to get a day that was fit for us to have a big day in the Mamores. We got off early to Glen Nevis, parked at Achriabhach and headed SSW along the bottom of the plantation to Alt a' Choire Dheirg, from the stream we struck W straight up the extremely steep grassy slope onto the ridge leading to Mullach nan Coirean, our first top of the day, that was a tough way up. We had snow flurries and low cloud drifting in and out all day. Making fresh tracks in last nights snow we made our way from Munro to Munro.
Our next top was Stob Ban a good way off, when we got to the top the cloud was down and we peered over the edge taking compass readings, we could feel the icy blast that told us it was a fair way down. We saw our way off in a break in the cloud, it looked a bit daunting but it had to be done. we aimed for Sgurr an Lubhair and then SE to Am Bodach our next Munro. The cloud was in and out and more compass readings were taken before I was convinced that this steep, icy, Snow covered ridge was our way down, we slid down on our backsides. We only met a dozen people all day and two of those were leading a blind man around the Munros, we had a chat with them, what an amazing thing to be doing. on next to Stob Choire a' Chairn, another Munro, these tops were all incredible places to be, challenging but not too frightening.We encountered some fairly deep snow that slowed us a bit, we decided to make An Gearanach our last Munro of the dayand headed back down Coire Chadha Chaoruinn to Glen Nevis and Steall Bridge. A cracking day.

After several hours of trains and busses we managed to get to Willowbrook Park on Staten Island to see The Carousel For All Children. From looking at the NCA's photo gallery of the carousel it didn't seem like this was going to be a particularly fun carousel and we almost didn't make it there, but once we got there and took a few rides I didn't want to leave!
It's another Carousel Works carousel build back in 1997. No rabbits here, Bigwig, but it has LOTS of other things, like a very nice ostrich and a dragon. I don't know what it is with ostriches, but there's always this overwhelming desire to put your hat on their heads when you ride them. I did it, and later I saw someone else doing it. It's some sort of power ostriches have over us I think.
We have LOTS of fun here despite them having no real food (we hadn't eaten since breakfast).
Managed to catch this little warbler as it briefly perched on a reed. It is actually called a Zitting Cisticola.

The BLM manages habitat for 245 wildlife and plant species listed as threatened or endangered under the Endangered Species Act (ESA) and another 31 species identified as candidates for listing.
An even greater number of rare and sensitve species depend on the public lands, including about 800 species of rare plants. The list also includes birds, frogs, butterflies, fish and mammals. Rare and sensitive species are not federally listed as threatened or endangered but they warrant special management attention to keep them from becoming listed in the future. In some cases, the public lands offer the best hope for recovery of species threatened by encroaching urban or agricultural development. About 450 of these 800 rare or listed plant and animal species are believed to occur only on BLM-managed lands.
The BLM’s Threatened and Endangered Species Program works to conserve and recover federally-listed species and their habitat on public lands. The program also provides support for conservation of non-listed rare plant species with a goal of avoiding the need to list them in the future.
The BLM places a special emphasis on maintaining functioning ecosystems to benefit all wildlife and plants, and restoring habitat. Because the habitat of many species includes lands and waters not administered by the BLM, successful conservation requires extensive collaboration and cooperation with a number of partners.

We managed to get tickets to six afternoon bullfights one day and went with Janice! I wasn't prepared for how gruesome it was going to be. Basically, the bull stands zero chance. For a good quarter of an hour, if not longer, they weaken it by jabbing spears into its backside until it's completely exhausted and falls over... at which point, the matador uses the final spear to scramble its brains. Surprisingly, after they drag the bull carcass out of the ring, it gets butchered in a matter of minutes and put into a truck. I imagine the meat gets processed or something, beforing making its way to the supermarket or local deli. But correct me if I'm wrong -- that's just a hypothesis.
Anyway, as nightmarish as it all sounds, there was an undeniable artistry to it all (not to mention the athleticism of the toreros) that truly impressed me.
