A lot of noise is being generated in the media regarding recombinants, i.e. Deltacron. The later is a misnomer & shouldn’t be used.
@PeacockFlu took pain to discuss these issues in details.

What are the new recombinants, i.e. XD, XE & XF? Which could be the most concerning?

#XD is French Delta x BA.1. It contains the Spike protein of BA.1 and the rest of the genome from Delta.
#XE is a large UK BA.1 x BA.2. It has the Spike & structural proteins from BA.2 but the 5' part of its genome from BA.1. 2/ Image
#XF is a UK Delta x BA.1. It has the Spike & structural proteins from BA.1 but the 5' part of its genome from Delta. 3/ Image
