Figure 1. Midpoint-rooted, time-scaled phylogenetic tree of RSV-A whole-genome sequences, Minnesota, USA, October 2023–January 2024. Tree was generated using Interactive Tree of Life (https://itol.embl.de) software. Column annotations denote (from left to right) month of specimen collection, whole-genome lineage classification, documentation of the infected case in the RSV-NET surveillance database for RSV-associated hospitalizations, and administration of nirsevimab before infection as documented in RSV-NET. Scale bar indicates estimated substitution rate calculated from inputs of time and phylogenetic distance. RSV, respiratory syncytial virus; RSV-NET, Respiratory Syncytial Virus Hospitalization Surveillance Network.
