[2022-01-24 08:37:42] [Kristian Andersen] A single word change from Jeremy.... Oh, the scandal! [2022-01-24 08:38:24] [Andrew Rambaut] We can say that Jeremy only microedited [2022-01-24 08:39:14] [Kristian Andersen] FWIW, the US doesn't care about Jeremy and he seems to be able to fight back effectively in the UK press. [2022-01-24 08:57:16] [Andrew Rambaut] Yup [2022-01-24 08:57:59] [Andrew Rambaut] Also Jeremy is an actual virus expert in his past life [2022-01-24 08:58:44] [Kristian Andersen] Yup. And to be honest - this whole email thread clearly shows that he played _no_ role in shaping or editing the paper. He had the chance to chime in with substantial suggestions/edits, and he didn't. [2022-01-24 08:59:17] [Andrew Rambaut] And shows that Fauci and Collins had nothing to do with it. [2022-01-24 09:00:17] [Kristian Andersen] Yup. [2022-01-24 11:37:31] [Eddie Holmes] Mine have been appealed multiple times and one has ended up in court so I think they should keep blocking. Plenty of evidence of the harm this is all doing. [2022-01-24 11:39:38] [Kristian Andersen] I hope the universities will keep fighting back and not release these (completely irrelevant) email threads. There's absolutely nothing in any of them (quite the opposite), but they'll be red meat for the nutters. [2022-01-24 11:41:33] [Kristian Andersen] And, key here - red meat = dangerous. I mean, do they need any more proof than the multiple death threats against everybody involved, included specific plans to assassinate Tony Fauci? We're on that same list. [2022-01-24 12:07:14] [Eddie Holmes] And so what if Fauci and Collins had commented on a paper that was about to be sent to peer review? Not sure what law that has broken.
