I find a new XBB.1 with S:486P lineage.

XBB.1(with orf8:G8*)+G11071A+C8127T(orf1a:A2621V)+A20713C+T23018C(S:486P) , which is clearly independent from XBB.1.5 so deserve designated as XBB.1.x

GISAID query: A20713C,T23018C,C8127T,G11071A Number of seqs: 140(Australia 4 Austria 2 Canary Islands 1 England 11 Scotland 5 Wales 3 France 36 Fujian 1 Hong Kong 3 Germany 3 India 5 Indonesia 1 Ireland 1 Israel 1 Italy 5 Japan 3 Malaysia 1 Mauritius 1 Netherlands 1 Philipines 1 Poland 1 Romania 1 Russia 2 Singapore 3 South Korea 29 Sweden 1 Switzerland 2 USA 7 Ukraine 5

There're too many under-sampled areas around the world so everywhere is possible given the wide distribution of this lineage.
