Sadly, all this ( #GISAID) is
like a scientific version of the “Epstein files” w/ scientific data being hidden/‘trafficked’/held hostage/etc. The “Bogner Files”? All members of the GISAID science advisory council & compliance board approve of this? Or just another ‘good ol’ boys’ club?

What to know about COVID variant NB.1.8.1 causing 'razor blade throat' A newer COVID-19 variant may be causing a severe sore throat in those who contract the infections. Here's what to know about "razor blade throat."<b></b>

A newer #COVID-19 #variant, known as #NB.1.8.1, has been nicknamed by some as "razor blade throat" due to the painful symptom.

Data from the open global genome sequencing database #GISAID shows the new variant has been detected in several states, including New York, Illinois, Texas and California.

repository for influenza sequences - and a key platform during the COVID-19 pandemic, centralizing SARS-CoV-2 genomic data.

The #CDC has posted genetic sequence data from one of the new Colorado #H5N1 #birdflu human cases in #GISAID. That's good, fast sharing. The virus fits tightly into the cow outbreak strain tree. (Orange diamond is the human case.) gisaid.org/fileadmin/c/...
