Nah, she's just going with the FOIA here - she's got no clue. Somebody must have paid her well to keep going at Proximal - the problem is, a lot of people (scientists) are actually listening to her, which is mind blowing. If people can't look at this and say, "wait, that doesn't make any sense", there's nothing I can do to help them.

In context

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

    Not so sure - she and Baric along with Relman were on a Republican /David Asher teleconference where the Science letter was conceived. Baric definitely playing both sides so he might be feeding her clues.

    Yeah, that's true - might be something to it.

    On the other hand DT was very much from the it was definitely not lab point of view - i.e., the non-cov amateurs came to the conference call thinking it might be lab but were told what the truth was by actual experts

    He's clearly coming from the angle of wanting to discredit us because we stepped on his territory (and I called him out on a few meetings) - so I honestly wouldn't be surprised.
