I guess we will all get these letters...
```Dr. Rambaut,
Please see the attached letter from Congressman James Comer, Ranking Member of the House Committee on
Oversight and Reform; Republican Whip Steve Scalise, Ranking Member of the Select Subcommittee on the
Coronavirus Crisis; and Congressman Jim Jordan, Ranking Member of the House Committee on the Judiciary. We
appreciate your assistance and look forward to hearing back from you. Please acknowledge receipt of this letter.
Thank you,
Ashlee```

I should have left it in my junk mailbox where I found it.... [shared file(s): Letter to Dr Rambaut.pdf]

I assume I can safely ignore it and not even acknowledge it.

Does say 'Nature Magazine' though.

Made it to Geneva - I just got the letter too. Their conspiracy theory has so many assumptions that are false.

Seems like they have also given Fox News the tip-off:
```Good morning,
Could you please comment on the letter you were sent this morning by Republican members of the House of
Representatives asking for clarification on why you originally suspected the COVID-19 virus was possibly man
created before then suggesting otherwise in the Nature Medicine report entitled, "The Proximal Origin of
SARS-CoV-2."
Do you still hold the belief the virus was naturally occurring?
Have you faced any pressure from Dr. Fauci and Dr. Collins to downplay the potential of a man-made virus, as the
letter suggested?
Thank you,
Caitlin McFall
Politics Reporter

Got the same. Maybe worth answering "yes" and "no"?
