24 now please propose it. @corneliusroemer ping growing lineage.

It doesn't look like this is a single lineage - or at least Usher struggles with it.

I've got this on the radar but the biggest Usher branch is only around 12 sequences or so. We'll get there eventually but for now still a bit small and scattered on Usher tree.

Oh thank you i didbt check the last sequences.

@corneliusroemer i ve rechecked it is one lineage , there is a sequence in a branch with a suspicious S:T21R reversion but the rest clusters together today:
