#XBB15 is really quite something. It is now 66% of all samples in US. All samples is a relative term though as the amount of genomic surveillance has dropped a great deal. Suffice it to say there's a lot of this variant in circulation now. (1/4) 
Showing modest gains in all regions, but 4, 5, 6, and 9 have definitely increased in share to dominance over last week. NE is showing a sustained dominance. Noteworthy, recently cases started increasing again in that region. (2/4)
Unfortunately, wastewater data is now quite lagging. This is data released 1/30 for samples collected 1/23. Approaching 10 days ago. We certainly are not getting out ahead of this. (3/4)
Nationwide hospitalizations that we have decided count as #COVID19 are now entering what may be a plateau - typically indicative of a turn in trajectory. We should expect to see a modest wave of hospitalizations from XBB.1.5 occur over the rest of the country now. Be safe. (4/4)
