For Lassa it's down to divergence - not so for this virus

In context

True - that's strange- they must have tried to sequence everything and gotten some sequences from pcr negative samples. Q61 is the same- pcr negative ngs positive - I think we've seen this on occasion in some of the Lassa samples.

Nah - gotta have PCR results to get any sequencing results with this virus

Good point! Diversity yeah - the PCRS for lASV only 70-75% sensitive vs NGS.
