He'd know what's up with that early creation date.

If you had some suspected cases of novel coronavirus, Weijun would be the kind of guy you'd contact - he's been developing diagnostics for SARS too, so would make sense. I think there's probably an earlier timeline here that they may have been obscuring a little - which, honestly, wouldn't surprise me that much.

Yes, I looked at the Lancet paper straight away. I've already contacted Weifeng. If that fails I'll contact Weijun Chen.

The point is who is the 'you' in your question? Who did they work for? A doctor in Wuhan? What people would do isrun the standard panel of tests and if they failed perhaps contact a sequencing company like BGI. But if that were the case why did they not submit samples until 2 weeks later? My guess is that they were created for something else and then backfilled.

"My guess is that they were created for something else and then backfilled" Yeah, that's my suspicion too - although that _is_ a little unsual.

Yeah, once the tinfoil hats get hold of this. :boom:

But it also doesn't fit the WIV narrative as they don't do anything with the BGI.
