@chris_wiebold @danwalker9999 @R_H_Ebright That's not necessarily true with virus. Mutations and genetic variation can occur with in family groups and some don't replicate at all. I think that the point to make is the virus is extraordinarily adaptable htt
@chris_wiebold @danwalker9999 @R_H_Ebright Evidently, there is so much variation within entire families of virus that one virologist suggests Linnaeus' binomial classification system isn't suitable for every viral strain... https://t.co/jeROsEgNYL
@danwalker9999 @R_H_Ebright to compare 6 million yrs of primate evolution to that of organisms that barely fit Linnaeus' system of bionomial classification. One taxonomist writes that classification should focus more on evolutionary differences/species var
