Deltacron, how wonderful. We must fear it! It's all about the fear! Have to keep the fear going! Biden can save us from it!
And ninja turtles characters. Sexual disease variants should be named after my little pony characters.
"...Dr Peacock wrote in response: "The Cypriot 'Deltacron' sequences reported by several large media outlets look to be quite clearly contamination - they do not cluster on a phylogenetic tree and have a whole Artic primer sequencing amplicon of Omicron in an otherwise Delta backbone." In a lengthy Twitter thread debunking the "variant", he said: "Delta sequences with strange mutations in amplicon 72 have been turning up for ages (for example Delta + Mu NTD insertion) however, they always show this non-monophyletic pattern and are nearly always more easily explained by this primer issue exacerbating very low-level contam."... So basically, they don't know the FACK they are on about. They are just trying to get some public spotlight. I mean, come on, they are on Cyprus, one of the most advanced biomedical research islands on the planet! Surely THEY deserve some time in the limelight, as they also shuffle your illegal money to another offshore bank.
