No, it really isn't - more of a genome announcement (although, quite a genome!)

In context

    I don't necessarily think it needs to get into people ASAP, but the whole process absolutely needs to be started ASAP - it's not a simple "six week and we're done" process. Better have this ready to go over the summer.

    Totally agree.

    Just looking at that CamboBat paper - very interesting. One thing they miss - that mismatch in the key RBD residue where CamboBat has "P" and the PangoCoV and SC2 have "F" (and SC1 / RmYN02 have "L") the "pre"-SARS CoVs from e.g., civets ALSO have "P". Pretty interesting. [shared file(s): Screen Shot 2021-01-26 at 5.59.43PM.png, Screen Shot 2021-01-26 at 6.03.31 PM.png]

    Oh cool! It's really not much of a paper.

    They had lots of opportunities to really get into sarbecovirus evolution -they didn't.
