I'll email them all to you Bob - I'll just make a cup of tea...as long as turning on the kettle is not deemed too dangerous

Had a chat to Linfa and it seems he has more positive pangolins. He's going to run his VirScan-like assays on Tommy's. I think we have 7 positive animals. Of course, that bats may be passing the virus to pangolins does nearly show that virus jump between species in nature. Who would have thought!!

Thanks Eddie. I understand that bats etc live in Sri Lanka and other tea growing countries - so yes better to curtailthat overly risky activity going forward. Agreed the pango story is an interesting one on many levels - lots ofimportant CoV evolution and ecology to sort. That is unless the Parisites have their way and all this threateningvirology is stopped.

You're right! I had better stick to coffee...oh no, civets shit coffee beans!!!

I post this because it is pretty instructive.

Also consistent with another conspiracy theory - all the world's leading virologists (and a few politicians) areshape-shifting space aliens from the future.

It's really the only way to explain QTQTNS and some of the other spike motifs in newly sequenced Bat CoVs.

Here's the updated Fig. 1 with the new bat viruses. Also noticed that a few of the new ones have a concentration ofS,T,P around the S1/S2 junction. Interestingly, several have several predicted O-linked glycans. So that's a featureof the site that is independent of the SC2 FCS itself. Also worth noting the O-linked glycans near the N terminus aswell. [shared file(s): image.png]

Great stuff Bob. I've just sent you the SI files.
