Recipients on this medium are inferred from channel membership, not per-message addressing.

Or they were weighed down some heavily by their prior assumptions that no amt of info would change their view.

    @Eddie Holmes Yuri, Alina and the other Drastic :clown_face:s licking their wounds. Problem with the WHO presseris not much science - the Cambo, Thai and Japan bat virus are a opportunity to counter some of the conspiracy theories with science.

    To Jesse's point - it's worth pointing out that "remaining agnostic" doesn't actually entail a 50/50 split of lab vsnature, but rather involves looking at data. He has not.
