Private channel session 174

A “conversation” here is an activity session — a run of messages with under 60 minutes of silence inside it. The channel had no native conversation boundaries.

Based on what John BBC said to Kristian I think he's gong for something "balanced." Probably will ignite a whole new round of conspiracy chatter. Yes - Sir Jeremy might be able to pull something off with WHO, but then of course Trump so maybe more inflammatory than helpful - we could also await Nov [which can't come soon enough] but noguarantees there.

BBC are the worst at false equivalency in these things because they have 'balance' built into their charter. So (particularly the news desks) thinks that means you just need to get someone in who disagrees with any position and you are covered.

Just talked to David Quammen who is writing a piece for the New Yorker about pangolin conservation (with some CoV angles). He is also starting a book on SARS-CoV-2. Suggested he chats about spike proteins with you Bob.
