Do you know if pangolin assigned it B.1.1.7 or if it was just the presence the mutation that suggested it to them? Weare putting a special bit for pangolin to require 3 of the mutations and no wildtype at these sites to make sure there are no mis-classifcations. To risky otherwise.

@Andrew Rambaut - thanks for taking down the post from Nigeria. I flagged it immediately this morning too with the team, so they need to get this updated and correct - Paul is working on it.

I can't quite figure out if pangolin actually assigned it to that lineage - the question was asked earlier, but no reply yet
