Sequence count by US State

#California has submitted a big share of sequences with specimen collection dates on or after 03/08/2023

XBB.1.5 is still at the top spot;
followed by XBB.1.9.1 & XBB.1.5.15

XBB.1.16.1 is 1.2% and its child XBB.1.16.1 is circulating around 0.5%

Granular details -#VariantDashboard #USA #15DayTrends

XBB.1.5* (VOI - @WHO) is still ahead of the other lineages!

3/n

.@CDCgov updated variant proportions estimates on 03/17/2023 (updated every Friday)

XBB.1.5 is leading at the top!

Prudent to start separately tracking XBB.1.5.13 (parent of EK.1* and EK.2*), XBB.1.9.1 (parent of EG.1*) and XBB.1.16

Predicted Immune Escape and ACE2 binding of top lineages in USA (relative to BA.2)

Bivalent boosters (OG/Omicron.BA.5) will potentially protect the boosted from getting severe disease/hospitalizations. Get updated if you haven't already!
