Oli might join it - he liked the snippet I sent him.

Well, Oli and Nuno said 220% more transmissible for P.1, so there's that :wink:. But I agree - I think we have to be very very careful lot to over interpret the data, which is much too easy to do. But ifwe're saying that SARS-CoV-2 now has an R0 of ~8-9 and no longer ~2.5 then, well shit...

Angie asked me about writing a letter too - I think we should definitely do it... (with her and others)

@Kristian Andersen No - not more transmissible (IRRC) - just that it was transmitting faster (in the environment itwas in).

@Kristian Andersen Hmmm, that was not how I read it (I remember them looking at those separately by splitting out immune evasion and inherent transmission - but I need to look again).

It'd be great to have Oli on. Aris too? Do you know him? He seems very insightful.

@Kristian Andersen Yeah - I need to look again. But I doubt Oli would be too gungho about it - he is the most sceptical of all of us.
