    That is interesting information, but I think what I said was correct though. I don’t mean to say that the strain takes over and doesn’t mutate thereafter.

      For sure, that’s what I said off the rip. But the flu variant which takes over isn’t the initial variant, as the high mortality rate coincides with low transmissibility. It’s the result of various point mutations and genetic reassortments to the first version which humans were susceptible to. But ya, potato potatoe, I’m just a nerd when it comes micro.
