"The fact that BQ variants are rising in the region make it a likely contender to generate a wave throughout the rest of the country"

The country can “be alerted quickly” to a coming #BQwave by looking at #NewYork data

Tracking BQ* lineages over time in the #UnitedKingdom

#England is a BQ* hotspot

Closely following BQ.1.1* and BQ.1.9* over time in #USA

Both are BQ* lineages with Spike: R346T mutation

BQ.1.9 is defined by ORF1a:V2604I and has picked up Spike:R346T later (independent from BQ.1.1)

Tracked #Convergent #lineages are predicted to be immune evasive and bind to host ACE2 receptor better than Omicron.BA2

XBB is most immune evasive
Most BA.2.75* binds better to ACE2 receptors

Closely watched lineages - XBB, BM.1.1.1, CA.1, BQ.1.1, BN.1

[Ouragan #Danielle : mise au point] Ces derniers jours, vous avez été nombreux à vous questionner sur la potentielle arrivée d’un #ouragan 🌀 en France vers le 10 septembre (image : nhc.noaa.gov).
Voici une mise au point ! A dérouler⬇️
1/14

Depuis début septembre, le @NHC_Atlantic (National Hurricane Center) ainsi que les divers services météorologiques européens surveillent l’évolution et la trajectoire de l’#OuraganDanielle 🌀 dans l’Atlantique Nord (image : nhc.noaa.gov). 2/14

Il s'est formé à environ 1500km à l'Ouest des Açores, à la latitude 38°N (phénomène rare à une latitude aussi au Nord de l'Océan Atlantique : - de 2% des systèmes tropicaux se développent + au Nord). Ce 4 sept., c'est un ouragan de cat 1. Animation : tropicaltidbits.com. 3/14
