Experienced chemists can look at molecule diagrams and have an intuition as to its activity and similarity to other known molecules. It’s like most of science and math: most discoveries begin with intuition and are demonstrated rigorously a

The way I see it, text is an external representation of human thought. If I could transmit my thoughts to you by telepathy, wee wouldn’t use text. Text cannot represent everything, so we invented drawings and paintings as representation of

Risks like these are orthogonal and additive. There’s no reason to discard any risk but to hedge them.

At that low virion count it’s more about the probability that a virion will attach to the correct CD4 receptor and be able to work inside the cell. It’s not about the host's immune system defeating or being defeated on a number basis.
