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.

In context

A single line often inverts meaning once you see what it answers, so neighbouring messages are always shown.

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
