    Wow - important read for sure - obviously a LOT of BS, but new and important information nonetheless. The penultimate paragraph sums up the BS. "Ebright alleges, however, that the type of work required to create Covid-19 from RaTG13 was "identical" to work the laboratory had done in the past. "The very same techniques, the very same experimental strategies using RaTG13 as the starting point, would yield a virus essentially identical to Sars-Cov-2." Seems extremely unlikely that RatG13 sickened 6 and killed 3 copper miners. Passing RaTG13 in human cells would not have generated the pangoCoV RBD. Last paragraph also interesting. There actually really are some "dots" - sick/dead miners connected to RaTG13. Coincidence? Probably a lot of unsampled CoVs in that mine. My guess one that one that didn't get sampled was the killer [50% CFR so makes SARS1 and 2 look tame]. Or maybe an unsampled paramyxovirus - respiratory version. "The Sunday Times put a series of questions to the WIV. They included why it had failed for months toacknowledge the closest match to the Covid-19 virus was found in a mine where people had died from acoronavirus-like illness. The questions were met with silence." Daszak clearly knew the whole story too - thou asEddie indicates it's in plain sight - the whole series of dots are out there in print. Furthermore, WIV hasn't exactly been hiding RaTG13, but they may be itching to get back there as well. Gao too...

    I blocked Ebright on Twitter so I haven't been following what he has been saying but suggesting that RaTG13 is the actual source material for lab production of SARS-CoV-2 is really dumb.
