Page (U Leicester),\nD. M. Palmer (LANL) and A. Tohuvavohu (U Toronto) report on behalf of\nthe Neil Gehrels Swift Observatory Team:\n\nAt 23:07:31 UT, the Swift Burst Alert Telescope (BAT) triggered and\nlocated GRB 201216C (trigger=1013243).  Swift did not slew immediately \nto the burst due to an observing constraint. \nThe BAT on-board calculated location is \nRA, Dec 16.358, +16.537 which is \n   RA(J2000) = 01h 05m 26s\n   Dec(J2000) = +16d 32' 12\"\nwith an uncertainty of 3 arcmin (radius, 90% containment, including \nsystematic uncertainty).  The BAT light curve showed a multi-peaked\nstructure with a duration of about 50 sec.  The peak count rate\nwas ~13000 counts/sec (15-350 keV), at ~20 sec after the trigger. \n\nDue to an observing constraint, Swift will not slew until T0+46.8\nminutes. There will be no XRT or UVOT data until this time. \n\nBurst Advocate for this burst is A. P. Beardmore (apb AT star.le.ac.uk). \nPlease contact the BA by email if you require additional information\nregarding Swift followup of this burst. In extremely urgent cases, after\ntrying the Burst Advocate, you can contact the Swift PI by phone (see\nSwift TOO web site for information: http://www.swift.psu.edu/)",
