   Bob Garry.

   Was Bob Garry on that call on the 31st?

   On the 31st --
5. 2026-04-10 09:00 Christina Salazar
   So yeah, I believe there was a call on the 31st, and that was Eddie Holmes, the Aussies reaching out with Kristian Andersen, to let Dr. Fauci know that he thought that, or they were concerned that it was engineered.
6. 2026-04-10 09:00 Ralph S. Baric open
   You know, being on that call, that was not a decision of that group that it was engineered.
7. 2026-04-10 09:00 Christina Salazar open
   Did they discuss it?
8. 2026-04-10 09:00 Ralph S. Baric open
   Yes. The main problem that the evolutionary biologists were running into was about that time they only had 8 to 15 full-length genomes of the virus DC.Scheduling@LexitasLegal.com sequenced, and they had no other sequences of related viruses. There was a rumor that a pangolin virus existed with 100 percent identity, or close to 100 percent identity to SARS-2. That turned out not to be true, as the pangolin, called the pangolin GD strain, which was about 90 percent identical, I believe, is the virus they were talking about. It has a receptor binding domain that is almost identical, nearly identical to SARS-2, but it does have a couple point mutations in it. And the reason that's important is that that meant that there were natural isolates in nature that had that sequence, which means it's not engineered.

   Okay.
