    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?
  8. 2021-03-29 20:52 Kristian G. Andersen open
    Ehhh, I think all university housing around there?

    I read that as positive north, negative south?
