Jon Cohen's story is brought up because that's the story Tony forwarded to me in his email - Eddie, we're both quoted in it, but yeah, it had nothing to do with any of this. Andrew, what's the skinny on B.1.617.2? I don't see anything I particularly like when it comes to that variant.

In context

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

Agreed! - that's where your capture-escape definition is helpful. Capturing the next pandemic virus, then getting infected is hard [and much less likely than 1 of 14M wildlife traders getting infected]. Escape also rare, but not impossible - that is why the Lab leakers focus on that. Throw in capture-manipulate-escape (still being pushed bythe likes of eDim, Yuri etc) and its a slam dun it didn't happen. [shared file(s): What Did Fauci Tell Trump About Wuhan_ - WSJ.pdf]

eDim - might be feeling a little overly cocky these days. [shared file(s): image.png]

He's talking about Fauci and Collins here.

Jon Cohen's story had nothing to do it for me - I don't even remember seeing it

Warning or Wanted? I'm confused. [shared file(s): image.png]

I think it should read "Warning: avoid this man at all costs"
2021-06-02 16:05 Kristian G. Andersen open

Better than "Wanted", I guess...

What a mess. Fauci did everything right.
