   Good questions My take on the whole thing is that they clearly think there's an intermediate host and they are holding up the marketas an example of the trade that leads to this transmission Daszak clearly thinks it the market which is why he sent me the video There's a lot on the market in the main doc - 2 journos told me they had the same impression

   Yeah, I get the sense that the Chinese are trying to deflect as much as possible away from the market, not being concerned with the lab leak because they know it didn't come from there. But it certainly isn't helping - the market,by far, seems like the most logical explanation.

   That's it!! Both Daszak and Dominic told me the same - they don't like the market link because it makes them look'dirty' and undermines their culture

   Also, if Shi is lying so is Daszak and that would take monumental cajones

   Yeah, I think they're concerned about potential "wild animal" farming and how that might have led to this - presumably big industry.

   A little hmmmm on this one though - here's a hybrid map I made. Look at that South-East cluster. I want to know dates. [shared file(s): Screen Shot 2021-03-29 at 8.48.06 PM.png]

   Is there a different market around there too?
