Hah. Well, not exactly the top scientist in the US, huh?

> I can't see any scenario of animal reservoir that would fit the phylogenetic tree of what we see globally Agreed, however, it wouldn't necessarily be visible as I'm specifically talking about very rare events 'cooking' upsome of the variants. E.g., in the Tanzania example, a lineage hopped into some animal, caused an epizootic (withno spill-back), and then at some point spilled back into human, causing onward human-to-human transmission. It'dbe a rare event and I don't think it's super likely, but I'm not sure our current data is inconsistent with such ascenario?
