    @Eddie Holmes Alina and others believe that there is a worldwide conspiracy to flood GSAID and GenBank with fabricated sequences. In addition to "scientist" turned detective I guess we need to add enforcer of database integrity.

    The 60 Minutes producer was impressed that I was willing to call conspiracy theories --- well -- conspiracy theories. Apparently they are off to interview and in studio PANEL:• Jason Yat Sen Li• Prof Mary-Louise McLaws - UNSW and advisor to the WHO• Prof Bates Gill - Professor with the Department of Security Studies at Macquarie University• Professor Raina MacIntyre - Global Biosecurity and head of biosecurity program at Kirby Institute• Professor Nikolai Petrovsky - Medicine Flinders University

    Nikolai Petrovsky I gather believes like Alina that SC2 is just too good at infecting humans and therefore was adapted in the lab.
