Here are the leading US states reporting NB.1.8.1 "Nimbus". Besides the International Traveller samples, it has been most common in California and Colorado, although all are roughly flat or declining lately.
🧵 Image
Sample data is lagging and patchy recently, apart from New York, Colorado and Maryland.

Meanwhile, the volume from International Travellers has grown, so they now look increasingly over-represented in the “national” picture.

This perspective excludes all the high-volume countries and regions that I routinely report on: Australia, NZ, Europe, Canada and the US. The remaining countries are aggregated into this report.

The volatility is due to the ragged timing of submissions from various countries.

Here's the latest variant picture with a global scope, to late June.

The NB.1.8.1 "Nimbus" and XFG.* "Stratus" variants are battling for dominance in an unclear picture.

XFG.* "Stratus" looks to have the best growth rate.

#COVID19 #Global #NB_1_8_1 #Nimbus #XFG #Stratus
🧵 Image
Here are the trends across all the International Traveller samples. From that perspective, XFG.* "Stratus" is dominant at 48%.

This dataset (mostly arrivals in the US and Japan) is arguably more random, as it is not skewed by sequencing volumes.
🧵 Image
Globally, the NB.1.8.1 "Nimbus" variant is showing a steady growth advantage of 3.1% per day (22% per week) over the LP.8.1.* variant, with a crossover in late May.
