    Curious though that the Malaysian one is one SNP closer to RmYN02 than all the others. So possibly that one (but the January cases in Malaysia were Chinese nationals visiting)

    So I think most parsimonious would be `Malaysia/MKAK-CL-2020-6430|EPI_ISL_416886|2020-02-04` -> `WA1` -> `WH04` -> `Wuhan-Hu-1`

    (but all in Wuhan)

    Would it be worth trying to simulate a WA1 with a date in the beginning of December and run beast?

    Given we see identical genomes spaced 6 weeks apart, I don't think we need to use imputed dates - just enforce WA1 to be an outgroup

    By the way - the C16T in WH04 is probably wrong, it is the very first nucleotide of that sequence. Should find abetter canonical lineage A

    Ah, yes - could be wrong. Let me see if I can pull the raw data

    I will find a better one - it isn't full length.
