Hi,
Just installed the client and have chosen as the "Research I wish to support " as COVID however the Project the client is running is 16923 (related to cancer research)
How do I specifically choose COVID 19 and more specifically be part of the current "COVID Moonshot sprint to assess potential drugs Sprint 5½ : Started Sun Jan 24 00:00:00 UTC 2021"
Many Thanks In Advance

Welcome to Folding@Home!
You can (and have) choosen a Preference, but if no Work Unit for that disease exists at the instant you request the next WU, you will get what is available.
Setting a Preference for COVID certainly increases the number of COVID WUs you will get, but at times you will get other (valuable) WUs.
Only if no work for your PC exists at all will it just go idle rather than doing other work.
