“…To analyze the variation in the most prevalent Delta sublineages in Mexico, sequences from AY.3 (n = 1001), AY.20 (n = 9759), AY.26 (n = 4676), AY.62 (n = 224), AY.100 (n = 1650), AY.103 (n = 215), and AY.113 (n = 572) were specifically studied. Moreover, to inspect their geographical distribution and spread, the country was divided into seven regions (Figure S1) as previously reported [14], each including the following states: Northwest (NW): Baja California, Baja California Sur, Chihuahua, Durango, Sonora, and Sinaloa; Northeast (NE): Coahuila, Nuevo Leon, and Tamaulipas; Central North (CN): Aguascalientes, Guanajuato, Querétaro, San Luis Potosi, and Zacatecas; Central South (CS): Mexico City, State of Mexico, Morelos, Hidalgo, Puebla, and Tlaxcala; West (W): Colima, Jalisco, Michoacan, and Nayarit; South (S): Guerrero, Oaxaca, Chiapas, Veracruz, and Tabasco; Southeast (SE): Campeche, Yucatan, and Quintana Roo. A stack density plot was built for each region using ggplot2 v.3.3.5 [19] in R v.4.1.0.…”
