    The good news is probably that this will be less fit in humans and is not a particular threat (above Delta which wealready have). Would be interesting though.

    And for context, the application was another from Ea. Associated Press. The final scope of the application is: _AIl University of Sydney email correspondence between personnel of the University's Viral Evolution Lab and:_ Anthony Fauci (email address afauci@niaid.nih.gov, AF10r@nih.gov)__ Kristian Anderson (email address Marion Koopmans (email address Andrew Rambaut (email addres: Jeremy Farrar (email address Collins Francis (email address trancis.collins@n Gontaining the search terms "Phytogenic", "coronavirus' to 15 June 2020. uk)_ jov)_ "Wuhan", and "GISAID" for the period 15 December 2019

    I can confidently predict that the number of emails containing the words - "Phytogenic'", "coronavirus", "Wuhan", _and_ "GISAID" is zero.
