CM.8.1 sublineage with Orf1b:N1790D and Orf10:A28V circulating in philippines and exported globally (84 seqs) #1554

Closed FedeGueli closed 1 year ago

Here i want to propose a CM.8.1 sublineage that appeared first in phillipines and has been exported fastly in several countries. I was digging a bit samples from Philippines or travel realted with Philippines after i have read that some regions of Philippines after reaching all time lows are now uptrending in positivity rates (Source: https://twitter.com/iamguidodavid/status/1613351017030246400) : in general BA.2.3.20 appears to be dominant there after a short XBC.1 interlude over 50%. More precisely CM.8* was over 30% of samples collected or related to Philippines after December 1st

Lineage here proposed is defined by : CM.8.1 +G14622A + Orf1b:N1790D (A18835G) + Orf10:A28V (C29640T)

3 out of 4 most recent samples have travel history from Philippines suggesting some degree of prevalence of this lineage there in this moment. @thomasppeacock @InfrPopGen @corneliusroemer

(5 out of 73 viruses with Philippines on Gisaid Metadata samples after 1st of december 229

FedeGueli commented 1 year ago

As expected looking at high prevalence in Philippines international spread was sustained during the past week: Usa : Texas and Hawaii Germany Netherlands plus two travellers from Philippines testing + in South Korea.

It represents 5 out of 17 samples collected in Singapore/ South Korea/ Japan airports in 2023 from Philippinos travellers suggesting a very high prevalence there.

reason why i ask @InfrPopGen @thomasppeacock @corneliusroemer to designate this one even if it doesnt have any spike mutation.

2 new sequences from Canada and Japan

FedeGueli commented 1 year ago

61 sequences as today

8 out of 34 sequences sampled in 2023 found by Gisaid querying for "Philippines" belong to this lineage suggesting high prevalence there.

FedeGueli commented 1 year ago

not growing . closing it for the moment

FedeGueli commented 1 year ago

79 seqs as today, reopening it since it seems spreading globally (Canada, France, Austria, Japan)

FedeGueli commented 1 year ago

83 sequences as today last 4 from France, California, Singapore and Northern Mariana islands

FedeGueli commented 1 year ago

84 as today. last one came from Ukraine.

I m reclosing this one. waiting for new uploads from philippines preannounced by local media.
