Not an expert on that (esp from a lab point of view), sequencing would be best. Preferably Illumina. Nanopore/Pacb have 10% error.

is this data new and taken into account Sandeep?https://twitter.com/nextstrain/status/1227383681901162496 …
Terry Lerona added,
Nextstrain @nextstrainThe newest#nCoV2019 genome on https://nextstrain.org/ncov is from a sample collected in Wuhan on Feb 7 and shared to GISAID just 4 days later. Extraordinary work from clinicians and scientists in challenging conditions. Huge thanks to China CDC and@bgi_genomics for data sharing.

Sandeep: "A patient with major issue of Prevotella infection early on is likely to have high WBC. Most patients have had low WBC, more consistent with viral infection being primary" What do you think of that response?

Yes. Have noticed that. Have a theory on that. Get back soon

Another response from a Virologist: "The presence of both, the virus and the bacteria doesn't prove much. - it's a correlation is not equal to causation thing. This also mean that every patient would have to have both present at any time. Also you would not be able to isolate

Ok, can you please clearly and simply spell out the exact request you have for data?

China has published 6 seq samples. https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/genbank/sars-cov-2-seqs/ … Such data are with most countries who are submitting in GISAID. An additional genome helps no one. There are 100. Not learning anything from that. We need more data like the Chinese ones. The metagenome.

Danielle, do you have a way to translate what Sandeep is asking for? Not sure what the data request is still... Sandeep, respectfully, this isn't enough. Please write something with 0 abbreviations and a specific request for what you are looking for and how to obtain it.

Sorry, not expert enough to put my name behind it at the moment, really hope sandeep heeds efforts to flesh out the request / theory because he’s leading the charge on it
