Sequence count by US State

#California, #Texas and #NewYork have submitted a big share of sequences with specimen collection dates on or after 03/15/2023

XBB.1.5 is still at the top spot; followed by XBB.1.5.15, XBB.1.9.1 & XBB.1.16

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 03/24/2023 (updated every Friday)

XBB.1.9.1 (parent of EG.1*) makes an entrance!

Prudent to start separately tracking XBB.1.5.13 (parent of EK.1* and EK.2*), XBB.1.5.15, XBB.1.16 and XBB.2.3

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!

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

XBB.1.16 in CA has picked up Spike Y453F (observed in Mink adaptations as well as chronic patients)

More on Spike Y453F from @jbloom_lab


6/n

.@LongDesertTrain & @Asinickle1 can add more about this mutation.. they have been tracking SARSCoV2 lineages with S:Y453F diligently
