spent the entire night informing about this by reading medical papers and trusted virologists and: we have to wait for that sequencing. If it's confirmed to be Antes variant (likely, since PT.0 was in Argentina) it was already h2h and it did not mutate. It also has a low R0. 1/2
What's concerning is that if the wife of PT 0 infected anyone on that plane, it could create multiple high mortality clusters in different nations (think 30 cases total x cluster) but it's unlikely to become pandemic (thank fuck!). So let's wait and hope for the best.
