Yes, looks good. Doubtless the Korber paper will be in Cell soon. I hear there may be more pangolin viruses. We'll see. I really want to what George Gao has up his sleeve.

Would be so friggin' awesome if George could pull this one off... Would make my life a lot easier :wink:. The US isgetting spanked by China so badly these days, so this would be the ultimate slap!This is a pretty big slap too... https://www.thelancet.com/journals/lancet/article/PIIS0140-6736(20)31278-2/fulltext(the US abstract version would be "it'll be fine, let's just wait and see".

I was worried about conclusion being made on whether people use/don't use face masks. Australia and NZ have had 2 of the most successful control policies globally. Hardly anyone where's a mask here.
