Picture This

Viruses are too small to be actually photographed, but their
shape can be inferred from data about them. Those perfect sphere animations
had me thinking they had been modified by humans because there were
asymmetrical protrusions on them, which would unbalance them. In fact,
viruses are more like chocolate-covered peanuts, all the same but each uniquely
disformed... Stuff happens at transcription!? So that arguments that the
mutations we do find might well be natural make sense!?
