I seem to remember him asking something like 'give me the probability it came out of a lab?'. I think he wanted anumber, although perhaps I'm deluding myself.

In context

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

I have a WaPo reporter (Dan Diamond) asking me a few questions about a conversation he recently had with Fauci. Here's what Tony said about the call - which, of course, is correct. As I mentioned previously, I honestly don't remember what Tony said on the call or if he had any specific questions - do any of you? [shared file(s): Screen Shot 2022-02-23 at 12.11.54 PM.png]

Yeah - some folks on the call asked for odds, but I can't remember whether it might actually have been Jeremy. I'll just say "I don't remember what Tony said"

He didn't ask many questions because he spent all his time telling us what to think

No worries. I'm just surprised we've not yet been blamed for the invasion of Ukraine
