Yes, this is coming along nicely. Great work Bob. Let's try and get this sent this week if we can. It's coming along nicely.

    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.

    Note that all of those mutations D80A [DorA?). D215G (DouG, Jr?),R246I (RidhI?) remove a charge (aspartic acid orarginine) - if you scroll back to initial discussions of Doug you'll see references that similar D mutations havecharacterized flu mutations in the past.

    Will do!

    @Kristian Andersen yeah better to seem to release them as the result of an FOI
  8. 2021-02-14 13:30 Kristian G. Andersen open
    @Kristian Andersen Should I maybe release that one, redacting Mike's name? I'm kinda tempted...

    @Kristian Andersen Let's see how this transpires. It's possible that USYD will reject the request. It's a long process.
