    Are you saying they deliberately inserted the furin cleavage site? I see no evidence of them ever doing that before. (Idon't think RaTG13 had a different name...I think there a partial sequence from another virus that is identical. Canwe do a quick zoom?

    To me, "Loss of furin site in tissue culture meaning it's active" strongly argues AGAINST culturing as being the cause of the cleavage site insertion.
