Another XBB.2.3+S:G184V with orf1a:P1786L (451 seqs, 33 countries)

[aviczhl2]

I'd like to propose a side branch of XBB.2.3.2.

sub-lineage of: XBB.2.3 mutations on top of XBB.2.3: S:G184V(G22113T, same as XBB.2.3.2), Orf1a:P1786L(C5622T) GISAID query: C5622T,G22113T,G6536A No. of seqs: 43( Australia 1 Brunei 1 Scotland 2 USA 3(California 2 Texas 1) India 37) First seq: EPI_ISL_17269931(India) 2023-3-9 Latest seq: EPI_ISL_17504909(Brunei) 2023-4-1

Also having S:G184V, it is as fast as its very fast brother XBB.2.3.2, in fact a little faster under current data. Hence a lot faster than the whole XBB.2.3 family. Although number of seqs is still too small.
