    Is that conversation that you've had with anyone?

    Let's take that into the afternoon.
  3. 2026-04-10 09:00 Christina Salazar open
    Would that change your opinion?
  4. 2026-04-10 09:00 Ralph S. Baric open
    It would depend on what data was present. Certainly the pangolin strains were identified, and I think the first paper that was published was in September of 2019, by non-WIV researchers.

    What organization?
  8. 2026-04-10 09:00 Ralph S. Baric open
    I don't know. The authors were from Chinese groups. We could find the paper, but that was the first report. In fact, the whole genesis around the pangolin strains, these pangolin strains, is confusing because the group that published first had one sequence. And then, if I understand it correctly, those sequences and samples were picked up, I believe, by WIV researchers, or another group, and they published a completely different set of sequences. So one paper is in a very infrequently read journal, and then the other was in Nature.

    What's the other journal?
