This website provides analyses and tools for exploring accruing mutations in hCoV-19 (SARS-CoV-2) geographically and over time, with an emphasis on the Spike protein, using data from GISAID.
The SARS-CoV-2 sequence data used for these analyses was updated from GISAID on Jul 6, 2022.
With the ever growing database of sequences in GISAID, sometimes the web connection times out before the analysis is complete. If you have this problem, please check "email results" and an email with a link will be sent to you when the job is complete.

We continue to provide ongoing updates to our listings of SARS-CoV-2 Spike Variants.
Jun 5, 2022
We now provide detailed information about WHO Reference Strains of SARS-CoV-2. This information includes both a spreadsheet describing each sequence, and curated alignments of the reference sequence genomes and Spike proteins.
Data Summaries
These analyses are updated several times a week. Our web-based tools can focus on specific geographic regions and time frames, using the links listed under “Tools” in the blue menu bar.
