Thanks for reporting, @corneliusroemer -- that is worse than I would expect. I know the pangoLEARN release 2021-11-04 had a problem with overcalling AY.39 because of a branch in AY.39 with a back-mutation at 27604, but I thought that should have been fixed in the 2021-11-09 release. Did you run pangolin --update before building https://nextstrain.org/groups/neherlab/ncov/europe/2021-11-21 or after?
Thanks for the link -- I will pick some sequences and take a closer look.
At Sanger we have an AY.111
call for BRBR-28F97E9
(unlike the NS version above) so there may be some issue as Angie flags
Spot-checking a few of the sequences inappropriately assigned to AY.39 there (USA/MT-MTPHL-3924694/2021, env/Liechtenstein/CeMM15935/2021, Switzerland/VD-ETHZ-34604446/2021), it looks to me like they were assigned to AY.39 with the 2021-11-04 release but not with the 2021-11-09 release (those 3 examples were all assigned to B.1.617.2). So hopefully that will be better with the next build of your tree. Sorry about that and thanks again for reporting it!
(And yes, I also get England/BRBR-28F97E9/2021 assigned to AY.39 with 2021-11-04 but AY.111 with 2021-11-09, thanks Theo.)
You're right @AngieHinrichs, it looks like the update failed and I used version 2021-11-04. Strange. I'm running pangolin --update
automatically in my pipeline but it must have gone wrong.
So I'll rerun the builds and see whether it improves.
Using the newest versions, pango usher mode seems to label things AY.39 it shouldn't.
The real AY.39 should probably just be the few yellow sequences here: https://nextstrain.org/groups/neherlab/ncov/europe/2021-11-21?branchLabel=aa&c=gt-nuc_27604&f_pango_usher=AY.39
