Simone is a straight reporter. I don't think she believes lab escape.

    "Others argue it is possible there were viruses in the lab, or handled during research, that were not publicly known." This is it in a nutshell - good on Simone for writing it. The fact that the virus emerged in Wuhan are what Alina and her crowd have left PLUS the theories that WIV had SARS-CoV-2 or something very close from *nature* before the pandemic.

    Billy aka Kevin has written a poem about @Kristian Andersen. He and Nicholson Baker should write something together. [shared file(s): image.png]

    I like that poem - clever. I should frame it. Thanks Billy.
