Recipients on this medium are inferred from channel membership, not per-message addressing.

Another way to ask the questions: B came from A as Andrew said in the NatMicro paper. But did the split happen inan animal or after the human to animal transfer? Maybe doesn't really matter.

In context

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

    Pathetic

    I think there's _a lot_ of early unsampled diversity, which can help explain the A vs B split. Much focus turned to the Huanan market, where super spreading might have occurred, so we end up having very biased sampling early on.

    That seems right. But is the diversity in unsampled humans, unsampled animals or perhaps both. Only A and B lineages made it through the bottleneck.
