Omicron BA.1 + R346K has *more* escape than Omicron V1
Uuugh.
Here are calculated binding scores (see https://t.co/jIPbndSdqp to mouse over points for mutations). BA.2 calculated to have *less* antigenic escape than main BA.1 lineage. BA.1 + R346K has *more* escape, also worse than @PaulBieniasz @theodora_nyc polymutant (PMS20). (6/n) pic.twitter.com/G5zW19Ei9w
