I'm just asking questions - not 100% convinced that Alina hasn't been secretly recruited by the Peter Thiel/Steve Bannon/Miles Guo axis - like Dr. Yan - to push Lab Leak. The fact she gave a talk essentially on the topic ofeugenics that Epstein (one of Theil's buddies) attended bumps up my prior on this a bit higher. Yuri - the head freezer - is all most certainly in the Thiel cabal.

Great TWiV episode Bob - really enjoyed that! And thanks for the nice words... :flushed:. One quick comment on the codons - the fact that they're commonly found in humans is actually _the_ argument Wade is making that these were human engineered. Quite a lot of (stupid...) subtlety to the recent conversation about that, so I made some specific comments in my thread to highlight how stupid that argument is: https://twitter.com/K_G_Andersen/status/1391507230848032772?s=20. Also, Bob, new microphone soon...? :studio_microphone::wink:
