Here's your #monkeypox match folks!
Next question - what inserts did they put in??
A Prashant Pradhan analysis would be great just now but I'm sure @trvrb would find a reason to blame it on a pangolin 🤔🤔

@trvrb @CharlesRixey @Daoyu15 Sequence used from here at

The problem is this...
Large runs of sequence read failures, except the rest of the genome is intact. So why such big runs of read failures unless these are perhaps at strategic locations where the genome has been tampered with?
@Daoyu15 @SabinehazanMD #monkeypox
Because of course if the full intact sequence of this is released, there is too much of a risk that anonymous social media people (and animals) with the right expertise might just look at it - just like we did in Feb 2020....
They didn't like that.

Just seen this in the rundown, that I hadn't seen before.
MN648051 is the Israeli 2018 strain. I got to it independently by BLASTing discontiguous large chunks, so I agree with @borges__vitor....
The new release matches 99.9%
