@stepheneb @ShadSterling @mekkaokereke there's a bunch of evidence that new variants do viral replication in different places; for a lot of them it's been the nasal cavity when the OG virus was back of the throat, so swabbing different locations will give better results for different variants

@luis_in_brief @mekkaokereke @seldo that doesn't feel fair; they were working on block and had already said it was planned for probably next week and folks who were invited or got in through the waitlist had a chance to make the choice of joining something missing a LOT of features. their mistake here is a badly protected signup system: that's what I'd view as casting doubt on how prepared they are to do this thing
