      Efforts to conceal early sequencing data. It seems circumstantial (i.e. data deleted for whatever reason) but it's evidence. My takeaway was that there was an earlier, less virulent strain than the seafood market. (I think I may have gotten it in CA late January.)

      It’s not an effort to conceal. And we knew about it 10 months ago.https://twitter.com/stgoldst/status/1407494774236483586 …

          As Bloom lab pointed out, if it were on the SRA, people would have been using it in an phylogenetic analyses. "no one noticed a table of some mutations buried in a paper on diagnostics."https://twitter.com/jbloom_lab/status/1407497629949325312 …

          Right, but it's not findable / usable as a table of mutations in a paper on diagnostics! If the data were on the SRA, people would have been analyzing it long ago in phylogenetic analyses. As it was, no one noticed a table of some mutations buried in a paper on diagnostics.
