Result: SARS-CoV-2 obtained novel haplotypes on the CA cruise ship to form the CA-B (
G25437T, corresponding to
L15F in the
ORF3a protein) and CA-C clusters (
G25437T+
C23604A, corresponding to
L15F+
P681H in the
ORF3a and
S protein, respectively), finally obtaining a reversion mutation,
T11195C, that was originally found in the Wuhan-Hu-1 strain (Figure 3a).
Discussion: Although the most important substitution in the lineage is considered to be
N501Y in the
S protein,
P681H is adjacent to the furin cleavage site (A684/R685) and m
