Roger WardThe Tolkiens were helpfully transparent about likely outcomes at their parties.
Long-read sequencing folks -- @PacBio @nanopore. Sage and Diagenode collaborated on best practices for using Megaruptor 3 with Sage instruments to produce HMW DNA samples with tight size distributions.

Omicron variants killed more people than Delta in many places. While Omicron is less deadly *if you get infected*, the infection rate is far higher- so often the total mortality rate is higher.
