    Large ex vivo and in vivo study from Baric's group on D614G. The effect is there, but it's very subtle IMO... https://www.biorxiv.org/content/10.1101/2020.09.28.317685v1

    Yes, I approved this at bioRxiv. Still, how it places out in the epidemiological context is way more complicated. Tome, local epidemiology is a far more important driver.

    I assume you saw this paper by Shi? Perhaps we even discussed it. Pretty interesting. Notable that Rhinolophus sinicus bats are in Hubei and have a range of ACE2 receptors. [shared file(s): Journal of Virology-2020-Guo-e00902-20.full.pdf]
