    Quite possibly need more to hang it on. But it might be good to bash out some ideas and see where we are.

    Don't disagree that with. I would certainly like to take the opportunity to respond to some of the nonsense written about the pangolin viruses. I'll check with Tommy where we are on this.

    Yes! That underpins 99% of the conspiracy stuff. So dumb. And how you end up with a pangolin-like RBD with a RaTG13 as a progenitor?

    Perhaps we should ask Nature Medicine if they up for Proximal Origins II? Given that the 1st one has 5 million accesses they might be up for it. I'll just add notes your doc Andrew.

    I think we can lance the butt lesion for the new version though.
