Perhaps we can write send an Erratum to Nature saying his name was added by mistake and should be removed?

    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?

    Butt Lesion will regret this - he's going to look like the biggest idiot. Yes, need to nail down the evidence doc. Should we have a call to discuss - we 100% need this and probably soon.

    Yes, happy to do that.

    How about Thursday? Earliest time that works Down under.

    So Friday morning my time? Yes, I can do that.
