Thinking how angry they must be this morning really warms my heart. It's pretty great that the WHO have said that the lab escape idea is not worth further discussion.

In context

@Robert Garry @Peterfoodsafety is the lead from WHO so I guess I just answered my own question about the frozen fish...

My expectations were low. It's actually worse than you might expect.

Yes - a bad day for Alina and the DRASTIC krewe. The frozen food thing is weak and looks like a concession to the Chinese. Other than that OK - Hard to listen to the video....

Totally agree about the frozen food thing - must be a concession. That and the Thai study is a heavy blow. I'm particularly pleased by the pangolin results. Bob - I couldn't access the Google Doc as I don't have permission.
