The length of that Medium Post though - seems like the start of yet another book for sure.

@Andrew Rambaut Thanks - WHO folks asked again about "peer-review" of the post so I may cut this to 1000 words and submit as Tech Report in response to Bloomshit. Just getting reaction from Bloom and Relman would be worth the effort.

Lots of names in this article.

Haven't read it yet, but from the summary: "... researchers are paying more attention to the possibility that the virus somehow leaked from the lab, though there's still nothing conclusive." Things like that pisses me off - "nothing conclusive" really has to be "no evidence".

Exactly I did the best I could with them - Relman, Alina, eDim the whole circus got to weigh in.

This is all still the fall-out from Science thing. Nothing new. That's why we need to do the evidence based doc. Don't get me started on Butt Lesion...he just craves attention and will say anything to get it. He told the BBC/PBSfilmmaker that he knew about COVID in mid December. There are so many stories of the dirt he has done. I wonder what Daszak thinks?
