Yeah, I saw the article - seems unlikely. False positive?

    And Kristian welcome to this rather exclusive "club." Hooper write; "But for Kristian Andersen to claim that the workby his colleagues and himself "rules out" the lab origin theory, and for Josie Golding to claim that it "end[s] any speculation" along such lines, is clearly premature and inaccurate. There are no such disproofs. I believe that as itstands at present, the lab origin hypothesis is at least as plausible a hypothesis as that of origin from Wuhanbushmeat."

    I am just left wondering why W. Ian Lipkin was spared in Hooper's a_d hominem_ rant. Surely he could have found something - somewhere - on Ian, if he just looked in the right place.
