The DoS materials mention some joint publications. Tell me how that translates to "secret."

In context

A single line often inverts meaning once you see what it answers, so neighbouring messages are always shown.

    The SC2 positive grate under your raccoon dog cage is all I really care about at this point. Plus I am pretty sure Iheard that most of the other SC2 positive environmental swabs were taken the stalls where they sold the live animals. That's a pretty big coincidence - the virus leaked from the WIV precisely all the way to that grate that had just been under a live animal that just happened to be in a market selling wild animals. I predict another move of thegoalposts however - CCP must have planted the samples there.

    Completely agree. Balls in WHO's court now.

    Can somebody please tell me how this is _any_ different from natural emergence? Because it's associated with research activity? A very specific low probability event compared to the alternative scenario... It's so dumb.

    Of course Alex is there to give Marc Lipsitch a statistics lecture... Love this guy. [shared file(s): Screen Shot 2021-03-23 at 15.21.05.png]
