Release notes
Update to designations of lineage B.1.575 and B.1.575.1.
USA and Aruba lineage with spike mutations "S:P681H","S:S494P" and "S:T716I".
From all SARS-CoV-2 genomes on GISAID as of 2021-04-25, any sequences with at least 8 of the SNPs below were aligned with a selection of B.1 genomes to place them within B.1 diversity. These sequences include previously designated B.1.575 sequences and a couple of sequences that had previously been designated as B.1.1.335.
