The Fermi GBM team reports the detection of a likely LONG GRB
At 11:03:25 UT on 22 Dec 2020, the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) triggered and located GRB 201222B (trigger 630327810.6864 / 201222461).
The on-ground calculated location, using the Fermi GBM trigger data, is RA = 95.7, Dec = 27.9 (J2000 degrees, equivalent to J2000 06h 22m, 27d 53'), with a statistical uncertainty of 5.0 degrees.
The angle from the Fermi LAT boresight is 107.0 degrees.

F. Kunzweiler, B. Biltzinger, F. Berlato, J. Burgess & J. Greiner (all MPE Garching) report:
The public trigdat data of the Fermi Gamma-ray Burst Monitor (GBM) trigger
at 11:03:25 on 22 Dec. 2020 were automatically fitted for spectrum
and sky location with BALROG (Burgess et al. 2018, MNRAS 476, 1427;
Berlato et al. 2019, ApJ 873, 60).
The best-fit position (1 sigma statistical errors) is:
RA(2000.0) = 99.7+/-3.0 deg
Decl.(2000.0) = 27.7+/-4.7 deg
We estimate an additional systematic error of 1 deg.
