A GISAID ID? Creating an alignment for Andrew Ward so he can get a cryo guy on it and he wanted a prioritized listof sequences

    Going full in: the FCS of some strains of mouse hepatitis virus is *H*RARRS.

    There you go. It's time we go back to Andrew's London sewage theory.

    @Andrew Rambaut - do you have a good reference for the best "Wales" lineages?

    https://www.propublica.org/article/here-are-six-accidents-unc-researchers-had-with-lab-created-coronaviruses"*April2020*: A UNC scientist underwent 14 days of self-quarantine at home after a mouse bite caused potential exposureto a strain of SARS-CoV-2, the virus that causes COVID-19, that had been adapted for growth in mice. The incidentin a biosafety level 3 lab happened when a researcher attempted to read the ID number on a tag on a mouse's ear.The mouse flipped over in the researcher's hand and bit an index finger through two layers of gloves. It did not appear to break the researcher's skin, but UNC told NIH in its reports that "given the uncertainty surrounding the exposure, we are treating this as a medium/high risk exposure." The researcher was instructed to self-quarantine and do twice-daily temperature checks. UNC also notified the local Health Department. No further information about the worker's health was included in the incident reports."

    Very confusingly (and coincidentally) it is lineage B.1.1.70
