[ensembl-dev] HDMG/dbSNP co-located variants

Hi David,

The dbSNP variant in question has been flagged by our QC pipeline as failed
(actually in this case by dbSNP; we also include their QC flags).

http://grch37.ensembl.org/Homo_sapiens/Variation/Explore?v=rs55796947

Flagged variants are not included in the VEP output by default; to include
them, add "--failed 1" to your command line.

Regards

Will McLaren
