In context

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

Wow - the whole cartel is in high gear. I'm pretty sure Trump is going to focus on the "China virus" Tuesday night inthe debate.

"Note, CCP = Chinese Communist Party". Just to be sure the idiots get it... It's a scary time. Seriously.

I've passed it all onto a reporter at the NYT who is doing a very big piece on the Yan report. They were amazed bythis leaflet. I've also passed it onto the state health officials who ought to know about the dangerous misinformation that's going around.

Is it Nicholas Wade who's on it at NYT? He asked me some rather strange questions (which I dodged).

Amy Qin. She's the China correspondent. She was recently kicked out of China and is now in Taiwan. She seems fine. She's very interested in the Bannon angle.

Great! I did not appreciate Nicholas' angle - just dumb basic questions.

She's not a scientist - more into the politics - but I think they want to take down the Yan report. Would be great.
