So much bs in this one. Phase I and II trials for vaccines against novel viruses we don't know anything about? Other than, of course, they're the most likely ones to case future pandemics. Suuuuuure._"Step two is something like Operation Warp Speed for the pandemics of the future. Once scientists have the resources to identify and track viruses with the gravest pandemic potential, a consortium of countries led by the U.S.should fund Phase 1 and Phase 2 trials around the world to test new vaccines against them."_https://www.theatlantic.com/ideas/archive/2021/04/how-pandemic-proof-world/618682/

I had at chat with the genomics people here yesterday and they said that most of the people who are coming into our hotel quarantine system from India have B.1.1.7. Apparently 20% on one flight were infected.

"Could N be involved in transmissibility?" yes - I'll take a look.

20%... I think we see an example of what can happen if you give B.1.1.7 (and possibly 617) free reign. Pure devastation - the reports are terrifying.
