Variants chart script has been revised. Bundling logic included a rule that was privileging Stratus XFG lineages.

Most recent #CDC dataset, updated yesterday, shows two Stratus XFG variants gaining ground against their dynastic cousins.

Meanwhile, Nimbus 1.8.1 / PQ family also gains share, lead by the XFY recombinant with XFG.5.1.

Note that, in absence of robust data from states, CDC has given up modeling historical estimates, instead giving only shares of reported sequences.

Raj's dashboard, updated six weeks ago, showed Stratus dynasty diversifying, with Stratus-Eleventy XFG.1.1 as first child, RP, approached sixth share of sequences, while XFG.14 line held below a tenth.

That said, GISAID data for the two weeks and change at the end of the most recent reporting period was dominated by paltry submissions from Nebraska (146 sequences), Wisconsin (140), Minnesota (128), Colorado (122), New York (91) and Illinois (78).

Most recent #CDC dataset, updated yesterday, shows now seven XFG lineages, including recombinant XFY. These reflect strains as broken out by CDC in recent months, together squeezing out patriarch and remaining siblings, cousins & niblings.

Meanwhile, Nimbus 1.8.1 / PQ family, is presently shown as holding out relative to XFG dynasty.

Most recent #CDC dataset, updated yesterday, shows five XFG lineages, reflecting variants broken out by CDC in recent months, together squeezing out patriarch and remaining siblings, cousins & niblings.

Meanwhile, Nimbus 1.8.1 / PQ family, previously shown as in decline relative to XFG dynasty, is now shown as rapidly gaining share.

Note that, in absence of robust data from states, CDC has given up modeling historical estimates, instead giving only shares of reported sequences.

Raj's dashboard, updated two week ago, showed Stratus dynasty diversifying, with Stratus-Eleventy XFG.1.1 as first child, RP, approached sixth share of sequences, while XFG.14 line holds below a tenth.

Most recent #CDC dataset, updated late January, showed four XFG lineages, reflecting variants broken out by CDC in recent months, together outpacing growth of parent and remaining siblings and niblings.

Meanwhile, Nimbus 1.8.1 / PQ family still holds out at near a twelfth of total estimated share.

Note that, in absence of robust data from states, CDC has given up modeling historical estimates, instead giving only shares of reported sequences.

Chart and #annoplot library now further revised to more fully address sparsity of #CDC data.

Most recent dataset, updated Friday, shows four XFG lineages, reflecting variants broken out by CDC in recent months, together outpacing growth of parent and remaining siblings.

Meanwhile, Nimbus 1.8.1 / PQ family still holding out at near a twelfth of total estimated share.

Note that, in absence of robust data from states, CDC has given up modeling historical estimates, instead giving only shares of reported sequences.

Raj's dashboard, updated three weeks ago, showed Stratus dynasty with diversified XFG.3 family at plurality, accounting for still over a fifth of all samples, with XFG.14 already over a tenth.

GISAID data for the most recent three-plus-week period was dominated by paltry submissions from New York (146 sequences), followed by Minnesota (129), California (39), Illinois (38), Massachusetts (33), and Nebraska (27).

Variants script has been revised to better represent messier than usual #CDC data.

Most recent dataset, updated yesterday, shows three XFG subvariants, broken out two months back, together outpacing growth of parent and remaining siblings.

Meanwhile, Nimbus 1.8.1 / PQ family still holding out at near a twelfth of total estimated share.

Raj's dashboard, updated Saturday, shows Stratus dynasty with diversified XFG.3 family at plurality, accounting for still over a fifth of all samples, with XFG.14 already over a tenth.

GISAID data for the most recent three-plus-week period was dominated by paltry submissions from New York (146 sequences), followed by Minnesota (129), California (39), Illinois (38), Massachusetts (33), and Nebraska (27).

#CDC's most recent dataset, updated near two weeks ago, showed three XFG subvariants, broken out last month, together outpacing growth of parent and remaining siblings.

Meanwhile, XFZ and XFV, both recombinants themselves descended from prior recombinants of LF.7 (XFC and XFG, respectively), were shown as quickly gaining in combined share.

Note that, in absence of robust data from states, CDC has given up modeling historical estimates, instead giving only shares of reported sequences.

#CDC's most recent dataset, updated today, shows three XFG subvariants, broken out last month, outpacing growth of parent and remaining siblings.

Meanwhile, XFZ and XFV, both recombinants themselves descended from prior recombinants of LF.7 (XFC and XFG, respectively), are shown as quickly gaining in combined share.

Note that, in absence of robust data from states, CDC has given up modeling historical estimates, instead giving only shares of reported sequences.

Raj's dashboard, updated near a month ago, showed Stratus dynasty with diversified XFG.3 family at plurality, accounting for quarter of all samples. Notably, GISAID submissions didn't reflect CDC's estimated growth of XFZ & XFV recombinants.

GISAID data for the most recent four-week period was dominated by paltry submissions from New York (80 sequences), followed by Maryland (45), Colorado (41), Minnesota (33), and Illinois (26).

Raj's dashboard, updated this morning, shows Stratus dynasty with diversified XFG.3 family at plurality, accounting for quarter of all samples. Notably, GISAID submissions don't reflect CDC's estimated growth of XFZ & XFV recombinants.

GISAID data for the most recent four-week period is dominated by paltry submissions from New York (80 sequences), followed by Maryland (45), Colorado (41), Minnesota (33), and Illinois (26).

After missing last month's update for reason of government shutdown, #CDC's most recent dataset, updated Friday, finally breaks out estimates for multiple XFG subvariants.

Nowcast suggests three XFG strains have gained significant share in past four weeks, along with two recombinants, XFZ (child of PG.3.2 and XFC.3) and XFV (child of LP.8.1 and XFG.3.3.1).

Note that, in absence of robust data from states, CDC has given up modeling historical estimates, instead giving only shares of reported sequences.
