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

   Interesting - not really surprised. So Bette is right? As in, her analyses are right?

   Once again Bette got the right answer but is using flawed methods. Her 3-sequence recombination method can't distinguish recombination from convergence.

   But recombination is no surprise to any one.

   That's what I thought - and yeah, recombination is absolutely no surprise to anybody who's been following this virus.I can assure you Bette will make full use of being wrongly right, though....

   I remember a tale of "rightfully" wrong back in the Ebola days https://science.sciencemag.org/content/353/6300/658.1.full https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/27516593/ Rambaut et al show that the erratum to our report on Ebola virus Makona evolution not only corrected sample dates modified byothers in GenBank but also corrected an additional transcriptional error in our original analysis. We agree with their observation that both factors contributed to our revised evolutionary rate estimate but continue to stand by our revised estimate and conclusions.
