@Kristian Andersen Yeah. I'm going more with it showing up both in RSA and BRA and the RSA paper showing that the NTD mutations are important for escape.

In context

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

@Andrew Rambaut - how good is the data on the increased mortality from B.1.1.7? Makes sense it would be, however, comparing mortality rates during a surge is problematic....

@Kristian Andersen L18F is not in the cryo structure, but it is likely in the NTD near where delHV and the del around241-3 in the mink.

I am not sure it is that strong. But the report was leaked so they had to do the press. It is really hard to tease apart all the confounding factors.

From Weifeng and obviously in very strict confidence. I assume these are from Yunnan. Also has some interesting alphas.
