So, am I in the conspiracy or not?

    Where it's been hiding out since that mine thingie, I'm not sure - but probably a freezer or something.

    Does this mean that these conspiracy theorists think the other conspiracy theorists are conspiracy theorists for suggesting that RaTG13 is real? I need to know.

    Nah, that's just a conspiracy theory.

    Just saw this - ```In fact, a Chinese BSL-3 lab (the Shanghai Public Health Clinical Centre), which published a Nature article reporting a conflicting close phylogenetic relationship between SARS- 35 36 CoV-2 and ZC45/ZXC21 rather than with RaTG13 , was quickly shut down for "rectification" . It is believed that the researchers of that laboratory were being punished for having disclosed the SARS-CoV-2--ZC45/ZXC21connection.``` They don't notice that that you are on that paper, Eddie?

    The rectification was for publishing the sequence, not the link to ZC45.

    Well, they do cite your CV, so there's that.

    Do I get a citation?
