@JerryColen 2/2 And how about you then do some deep reflection on your own behaviours across your lifetime, and the many ways you might have perpetuated racial inequalities. And when you've done that, look me in the eye and tell me you have nothing to apologise for.

Additional 'UK lineage' (B 1.1.7) genomes have been uploaded today on #GISAID for The Netherlands, Hong Kong, Israel and Australia. Its global presence should make it easy to work out whether it is intrinsically more contagious.
