Hah, this is sooooo terrible. I'm pretty sure that Pompy looked up "Biosafety Level", thought, "That's some scary shit- let's blame China", and grabbed the keyboard.US politicians (and intelligence) actually used to be widely respected in the world. Boy, has that gone downhill.

We now have an "NYC" variant... Sigh. Any concerns about any of these mutations - especially the ORF1s? [shared file(s): Screen Shot 2021-02-24 at 7.38.07 AM.png]
