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

Exactly. Basically it would be best to knock it out but that is likely too late.

Australia managed to do it :wink:

But yeah - we're not going to be able to completely stop this now - sure, put the brakes on, but we'll likely see this become the dominant lineage over the next few months.

Best we can hope for is that it isn't more transmissible and gets eliminated by the new lock down measures. A worse case is that the measures knock every thing else out.

Yup!

I hope it turns out we are wrong and it is not transmissible - it is the right decision not to wait to find out I think.

Agreed - this is a perfect example where we can't wait for scientific certainty, but need to react immediately anddecisively. No pussyfooting around. Also, I find it hilarious that we find ourselves in 1/"Virologists look at a mutation and assume it is adaptive,evolutionary biologists assume it isn't. Neither are right all the time" :wink:

That is weird. The Australian (from Victoria) cluster didn't take off but the circumstances here are not like US/Europe because there is strong intervention. The lineage that did take off in Victoria a little later did so because it was associated with a super-spreading event.
