Well policy platforms are literally the first thing you can find about a candidate, but if your name isn't "Bernie Sanders" then Redditors don't really take the time to learn that.

Viral genomes are incredibly tiny, especially those composed of RNA. Corona is big (for an RNA virus) and encodes around 20 proteins I believe. Many related viruses share nearly all the same proteins, they just may have slightly different functions, a different protein for moving to other cells, etc.

It would likely be in the upper 90% range to really tease apart two viruses as being closely related.

I’m a plant pathologist and always feel ashamed when I can’t tell people many tips for hunting mushrooms (a very competitive thing in my home town). Without spoiling much of your book, what are some general tips you have?

Also, basidiomycetes or ascomycetes? Basidiomycetes are some of my favorites, personally.
