Then there's ~DT~ Baric. Yes - he's no doubt been getting heat - maybe a lot - re GoF. Still makes him a major league arse, but it's why he signed the Bloomshit letter. Need a journo with some fortitude to lay this all bare.

In context

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

That's a HUGE point about the thesis - Turn that against the Lab Leakers!

JB didn't ignore you. the twitter exchanges pissed him off to the point he came out with the Bloomshit letter. He's anexcellent scientist when it comes to benchwork. Real-world stuff related to outbreaks not so much.

Going back to JB's intentional release statement - does he really believe that someone at WIV or another lab in Wuhan released a bioweapon on their own people? That would be profoundly nuts.

Speaking of profoundly nuts - I actually do think that that is where eDim is going with his call to investigate all theUSG agencies, EcoHealth etc. JB may well be referring to the possibility that US or Russia intentionally releasedSC2. It's also of course precisely where Rand Paul/Fox News and some of the other certifiably crazy politicos are coming from. Makes Steve Bannon look sane by comparison. Fauci/Collins probably not too happy with the JB for the NYT quote.

A whole article about something you wrote on Twitter. Imagine that.

Unrestricted bioweapon. Dr Yan = Dr.Bloom. Raises the question - I'm just asking - is JB getting some bucks from Miles/Bannon.

Time to have a version of this with people paid by Bannon and the Russians :zany_face: https://andersenlab.slack.com/files/U0HFUE9E3/F021TNYPSTX/screen_shot_2021-05-13_at_10.51.25_pm.png [shared file(s): Screen Shot 2021-05-13 at 10.51.25 PM.png]
