    @Andrew Rambaut I have to say that if immune selection has driven the appearance of Erik in Amazonia that does make me a bit more worried about the UK dosing strategy.

    Although I guess it also shows that these mutations are going to appear all over the place.

    Great... I guess that's probably separate to the study on Virological. I'm leaning towards E484K being able to escape immunity by now - maybe not in all cases, but at least in some.

    I'm going to have to pass because I have a very late meeting the following night that I'll need to rested for. Looking forward to a debrief from Andrew!

    We have 5 cases of Erik on top of the B117 but they are spontaneous and I doubt driven by antigenic evasion.
