KP.4.1 got Deflirt and it is still circulating in three continents in September (70, 14 places including Iraq) with a recent minibranch adding S:T22N (2, Australia, QLD)

This went unnoticed ( or we confounded it with KP.4.1.3) maybe due the fact Usher puts it under S:S31F but instead all the sequences have S:S31del.
It managed to fly under the radar until September when it was samples 5 times from three continents (Australia, France, Spain, Florida)
Interestingly it is converging now toward S:T22N with a mini branch sampled in Australia in September
