@Andrew Rambaut And from Bloom's paper: "All studies were conducted at the BSL2 animal facility at the Centre for Comparative Medicine Research, The University of Hong Kong. " Just asking questions, but how does JB know that inoculating a PPP via novel routes into an animal that has a very human like receptor distribution isn't going toselect for a new and more transmissible variant. BSL2 just like a dentist's office according to eDim.

In context

I think we could have a title and a lede for the letter - "Umbrella men and the zoonotic origins of SARS-CoV-2"

@Andrew Rambaut Myopia - the Bloomshit has the potential to shut this type of research down. Relman, eDim. Alina all have opined that Jessie should move to the country at least to do this dangerous type of animal passage ofa PPP.

@Andrew Rambaut Haha, this is so unbelievably dumb - I guess once we have a flu outbreak in Seattle we know who to blame...

I'm pretty glad this 'investigation' is handled by the intelligence community - only way to do it. They final report will just (hopefully...) regurgitate the evidence as we understand it already. Between us, but the spooks will spend quite a bit of time in sunny San Diego. N'Orleans too?
