0:00.0 | This week in virology, the podcast about viruses, the kind that make you sick. |
0:10.4 | From micro TV, this is TWIV, this week in virology, episode 936, recorded on September 14th, |
0:20.0 | 2022. I'm Vincent Racken Yellow, and you're listening to the podcast all about viruses. |
0:26.5 | Joining me today from New York, Daniel Griffin. |
0:31.2 | Hello, everybody. So I am in New York. Where are you, Vincent? |
0:35.4 | Today, I am coming to you from Little Rock, Arkansas, the birthplace of the Clinton movement, |
0:43.5 | if you remember. I remember that. I do. All right. Well, we've got a lot to cover today. We wouldn't |
