Just an FYI - I did go ahead and submit the virological post as a tech comment to Science. As you know, Science requires that you send it to the authors for comment, so I sent to the Bloom and Relman. JB sent this: Hi Bob, Thanks for reaching out, and hope all is well. I look forward to reading your thoughts about this. We will look over your comment and get back to you as soon as possible. Apologies if it ends up taking a day or two: because have a substantial number of co-authors on the letter, we need to make sure we adequately check with others before sending anything that could be construed as a group response. --Jesse---- Jesse Bloom Associate Professor, Fred Hutch Cancer Research CenterAffiliate Associate Professor, Genome Sciences & Microbiology, University of Washington Investigator, Howard Hughes Medical Institute

In context

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

    @Eddie Holmes Perhaps telling that I got it too, but simply failed to bother to click on it.

    Also - Vince R asked me to do a TWiV on origins (he did mention hearing the Bob's Bullocks podcast) - I'm assuming he may have reached out to @Kristian Andersen. Even though he gets a lot wrong, I might do it...

    Ask him whether he thinks there is ZERO chance that B.1.1.7 is more transmissible.

    Yeah, do TWIV Bob. Vince did not contact me, but it's worth you going. The evidence doc will be useful...
