@Kristian Andersen The false equivalence gets to me every time - so frustrating! I turn all these interviews down, but his questions were different, kinda interesting, and looked honest. You learn every day....

In context

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

On the Rambaut scale - how alarming do these look to you? It's a little unclear here in San Diego, but I _do_ thinkwe might see it expanding rather rapidly - and in different lineages.

@Andrew Rambaut They are fairly new but I don't know how fast they are growing. Will look again later today

There is a ton of mischief changing L452R could do. Likely a neutralizing epitope of course. The positive charge onR likely changes the interactions with several other chains. This could improve the interaction between Y453 andH34 on ACE2.
