    Snippet: Further, because SARS-CoV-2 genomes are being generated continuously and at a similar pace to changes in virus transmission and epidemic control efforts, we expect to see a continual process of lineage generation and extinction through time. Rather than maintaining a cumulative list of all lineages that have existed since the start of the pandemic, it is more prudent to mark lineages as 'active', 'unobserved', or 'inactive', a designation reflect.....

Rather than maintaining a cumulative list of all lineages that have existed since the start of the pandemic, it is more prudent to mark lineages as 'active', 'unobserved', or 'inactive', a designation reflecting our current understanding of whether they are actively transmitting in the population or not.
