Narrative:

We departed ZZZ with incorrect release. Both the captain and I missed that we were on release 2. There was a re-route which ATC had to read to us. The dispatcher thought he published release 2 before the captain signed release 1. He was mistaken. Captain signed for release 1 three minutes before the dispatcher submitted release 2. The captain and I should have caught the error when the final weight manifest was reviewed. This was my third flight after being off for 6 months because of covid-19.
