Here's the latest variant picture for South Australia.

EG.5.* "Eris" (33%) appears to have become dominant over "Deltacron" XBC.* (24%) and XBB.1.16.* "Arcturus" (23%), in a somewhat chaotic mix.

Sample volumes seem representative up to October 3.

update for & , (August 19, 2023)

.1.5* and its descendants are still hanging around with XBB.1.5.10 making a comeback as EG.5.* tries to become dominant here while XBB.1.16 is slowly decreasing. 🧵 1/

Here's the latest variant picture for New South Wales, Australia.

"Deltacron" XBC.* (23%) is rising sharply to challenge the dominance of XBB.1.16.* "Arcturus" (29%).

XBB.2.3.* "Acrux" (15%) is also rising quite rapidly.

The mix of very different variants poses a raised immediate re-infection risk for anyone relying on natural immunity from a recent infection.

Here's the latest variant picture for Queensland, Australia.

It's difficult to interpret as sample volumes are very low and patchy. There's a lengthy gap where <10 samples were shared, between May 13 and May 24.

XBB.1.9.* "Hyperion" (24%) may have returned to dominance. It looks like the many sub-lineages including EG.* and FL.* are making a contribution

XBB.1.16.* "Arcturus" (32%) has surged to dominance.

The XBB.1.9.* "Hyperion" (24%) and XBB.1.5.* "Kraken" (19%) variants are still significant.

The "Deltacron" XBC.* variant (11%) and CH.1.1.* "Orthrus" (14%) are still in the frame.

Be alert for conjunctivitis symptoms, particularly associated with the Arcturus variant.

The vigorous mix of very different variants poses a raised immediate re-infection risk for anyone relying on natural immunity from a recent infection.

The sample volumes seem representative up to May 3. There are almost no sequences shared since that date - hopefully only a temporary bottleneck.

Here's the latest variant picture for the Northern Territory, Australia.

After a gap of over a year, a couple of samples were recently shared from the NT.

The 2 samples are variants that are common elsewhere in Australia - XBB.1.16.* "Arcturus" and XBB.1.5.* "Kraken".

I've been banging on about this for over a year now, so it's great to see data sharing restart. Hopefully that can continue so we get a more accurate picture of the unique mix in this remote area with international air and sea ports.

XBB.1.16.* "Arcturus" (20%) is growing quite rapidly. Be alert for conjunctivitis symptoms, which seem more common with that variant.

The variant mix in WA continues to be uniquely chaotic, reflecting it's situation as a global crossroads. Even WA residents who've been racking up regular reinfections are likely to meet globally obscure variants capable of overcoming their immunity.

There's still a bit of XBF.* "Bythos" and CH.1.1.* "Orthrus" around, which have mostly disappeared from the rest of the world.

The XBB.1.5.* "Kraken" variant (23%) appears to be fading against the dual challenge of XBB.1.9.* "Hyperion" (25%) and XBB.1.16.* "Arcturus" (20%).

The "Deltacron" XBC.* variant (10%) has fallen back, after showing some promise in late March.
