   Not sure if this is something or nothing. I'll need to have a chat with Dominic.

   Need the ages. Also why don't they have a hell of a lot more in December? 80 in Oct/Nov would mean 100s in Dec.

   Agree - also agree with this: "Marion Koopmans, a Dutch virologist on the WHO team, echoed that concern. "From what we know about serology, out of 92 cases you would at least have some positives," she said." She right - if they were doing the tests right there would be some positives. What about that Italian4 year old with the supposed positive pcr - they could test his blood for antibodies. Almost inconceivable they didn't.

   Was he really that important for COVID or is that his self-created myth?

   The reporting on the WHO mission has been largely shit.

   WaPo kinda started the shit slide - but they have been shit about it for quite sometime. Same with WSJ.
