1
00:00:01,000 --> 00:00:02,834
It used to take weeks to months

2
00:00:02,834 --> 00:00:04,166
in a room full of equipment

3
00:00:04,166 --> 00:00:07,734
to sequence a genome
of a bacteria or virus.

4
00:00:07,734 --> 00:00:10,333
Today we can do that
in just a few hours

5
00:00:10,333 --> 00:00:12,400
with equipment like this.

6
00:00:12,400 --> 00:00:16,433
It sequences a genome and allows
us to figure out what it is,

7
00:00:16,433 --> 00:00:17,700
whether it's resistant,

8
00:00:17,700 --> 00:00:19,667
and whether it's
part of an outbreak.
