Answers.Text: Hi! Thank you for sharing! I already have these files as well actually (.snp.vcf.gz, .indel.vcf.gz, .cnv.vcf.gz and their .tbi's). Can you detail me a bit more on the part where I can load these into some tools to list all mutations known to mankind at current 2020 (and their related disease/classification)? I am exploring both websites you just mentioned but feeling a bit lost. Thanks!
