It's hard to say for sure with the holiday weekend interruption, but we might be close to the peak for the summer. Let's see if Friday's data confirms the slowdown. For comparison, last summer peaked at 2.6%. A peak this week would match my forecast on both timing+intensity.

Hepatitis A virus egresses from hepatocytes cloaked in exosomes (eHAV). This study proposes that eHAV biogenesis may follow not only an ESCRT-mediated pathway but also the syndecan-syntenin-ALIX pathway. 🔎 🔗 go.nature.com/3ZvlaL7 | @CommsBio

Although MiSeq should still be considered as the standard method for SARS-CoV-2 variant tracking, MinION’s versatility and rapid turnaround time may represent a clear advantage during the ongoing pandemic.
