Yes, he would have been there.

In context

A single line often inverts meaning once you see what it answers, so neighbouring messages are always shown.

  1. 2026-04-10 09:00 Ralph S. Baric open
    That might true, correct.
  2. 2026-04-10 09:00 Christina Salazar open
    So up until that point, you had no discussions about the DIFFUSE proposal.
  3. 2026-04-10 09:00 Ralph S. Baric open
    Not that I'm aware of. I was busy on other things.
  4. 2026-04-10 09:00 Christina Salazar open
    There were other people on that grant, so Peter Daszak.
  5. 2026-04-10 09:00 Ralph S. Baric
    Yes, he would have been there.
  6. 2026-04-10 09:00 Christina Salazar open
    But he never raised it. To me it's odd that you wouldn't recall that.
  7. 2026-04-10 09:00 Ralph S. Baric open
    If he would've raised it, I would've remembered it then, because he would've put it in context.
  8. 2026-04-10 09:00 Christina Salazar open
    And he would've told you, right.
  9. 2026-04-10 09:00 Ralph S. Baric open
    Yeah. I think you have to think about where the focus of the research community was. My focuses, at the time, were to rapidly develop mouse models so that we could test mRNA-LNP-based vaccines against SARS-2, to work with Gilead to get their drug forward into clinical trials, to get molnupiravir, a second drug that was FDA approved for use in humans, into clinical trials.
