   No. The FOI request wanted emails related to the papers. As this is before the paper I didn't include it. But we couldof course release it ourselves if necessary.

   @Kristian Andersen Ah, okay. I'll leave this under wraps for now - but once we have the list of emails to be released,we might want to put out a few of them with some context. They'll be noticed, no doubt.

   Agreed. There's a few that I can also release.

   Very interesting figure! [shared file(s): EuNejqhXcAUjMGC.jpeg]

   What's wild - two doses of Pfizer leads to greater neutralization against SARS-CoV than B.1.351 according to this figure. That's wild.\

   And IMO - highly suggestive of lower overall antigenicity of B.1.351 - i.e., a more general mechanism of (Ab-mediated) immune evasion.

   Kind of surprising to me -P1 takes a hit, but B.1.351 is bad. Does it suggest that the B.1.351 NTD mutations D80A[DorA?). D215G (DouG, Jr?),R246I (RidhI?) may be more problematic than EriK????

   Yeah, I was really surprised by that difference as well - I thought they'd be about equal. Need to see the preprint itself so we can see the actual mutations

   And B.1.351 is just dead dead - it's pretty scary.
