Together with the INRB, we are maintaining an outbreak-focused tree with the latest sequencing data, and have prepared a detailed analysis of the current data in the form of a Nextstrain narrative. (2/2) nextstrain.org/narratives/e...

Closing these public analyses puts the world more in the dark and concretely harms surveillance as it becomes more difficult for variant spotters to contribute to global situational awareness. 4/5

Tools like Nextstrain, CoV-Spectrum, UShER and outbreak.info facilitate a global community of experts to keep close tabs on the ongoing evolution of SARS-CoV-2. Support for outbreak.info ended in Jan 2025 and CoV-Spectrum hasn't been updated for >3 weeks. 3/5

We strive to credit labs collecting specimens and generating sequence data prominently. But credit for data contributions is not zero sum – surfacing of data in popular tools generates visibility and does not infringe on future publications by the data generators. 2/5

On Oct 1, 2025, GISAID informed us that they had ended updates to the flat file of SARS-CoV-2 genomic sequences and associated metadata that we had used to update Nextstrain analyses since Feb 2020. GISAID's stated rationale was that their "resources are limited". 1/5

Fantastic training by @aphl.org and @unmc.bsky.social (Dr. Shaun Cross) with Uganda CPHL on @nextstrain.org data viz for #mpox & #Ebola Sudan virus. The workshop brought together lab, epi, and IT staff—and by the end, they were building phylogenetic trees for other pathogens too! 🧬🌍 #GenomicEpi
