Agree about the patting - but you did great Eddie! Action-packed 9 slides...and more than a few well placed blowstoward the GVP crowd. I must have blown over the SARS1 furin bit in the Gronvall piece - that would have definitelylowered my grade probably even below the B-.

In context

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

They got a number of things wrong - some of which could be problematic. E.g., they mention that SARS1 has a furin cleavage site in the spike - that's clearly not true and suggestive of them not looking very closely at the literature. I'll posit that my much shorter Twitter thread did a better job :wink:

SARS1 furin is a shocker. Best not associate ourselves with these people. Your Twitter thread was very good: reallywound them up!
