CheekyGeek Posted January 28, 2020 Report Share Posted January 28, 2020 8 hours ago, niman said: Claim no mutations in US sequences both have mutation in orf 8 Quote above from your notes. You mentioned that the Chicago Sequence "has mixed signals at multiple positions, including orf 8 mutation, signalling dual infections and more recombination". So are you saying: The CDC claims no mutations in US sequences in the face of evidence that both have mutation in orf 8? I don't know what I'm looking at, but it is interesting to copy and paste the sequences into text-compare.com to see the highlighted differences between the sequences. Provides more grist for the Google mill. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
