Just for you! The public health people want to if a lineage carrying Erik alone is the cause for concern. In this case Iwould say no because I think this lineage has been around since 2020-03-23 according to Pangolin. Thoughts?

VOC cases are currently subjected to different quarantine procedures in Australia. So, your answer will dictate the quality of uber eats he/she will get.
