@tgof137 Great work! A question: Lineage A appears to have been less severe; wouldn’t that create a scenario where more of the early A cases, compared to B cases, were overlooked? "L-type accounted for most of the disease severity." https://t.co/V6ZbD0xU
Lineage A (S) seems less transmissible and less severe than lineage B (L). Another aspect besides the warmer weather that could have made it evade suspicion that it was spreading silently in a part of Guangdong in October 2019 already. https://t.co/ghThDd
@zhihuachen @BioTurboNick Sorry, a wrong formulation in 2. But lineage A was more prevalent in some of the provinces closest to Hubei we have data for. Guangdong, Anhui and Yunnan. https://t.co/V6ZbD0xUTk https://t.co/2oP2H28wkM
Has anyone encountered a study like this, but for Hubei only, that shows the distribution of lineage A & B within Hubei province? Perhaps we could use it to zero in on a potential origin - a city or area with a certain kind of farm, e.g.? https://t.co/
