Her latest on Jeremy is def in libel territory.

Completely out of line and very clearly mis- and disinformation. [2022-02-05 08:25:39] [Kristian Andersen] Also - NIAID Centers focused on preventing lab infections? Lol - come on - that really is an amazing display of ignorance. :rolling_on_the_floor_laughing: [2022-02-05 08:59:29] [Robert Garry] Too bad Eric is not still at the Broad - he could read her the riot act - professionally of course. [2022-02-08 04:34:45] [Robert Garry] @Kristian Andersen I remember this episode differently. Posting for archiving purposes. I am tempted [but I won't] to shoot Todd Frankel an email though.

[2022-02-08 09:03:36] [Robert Garry] Notice that he's communicating with the Politico reporter, no doubt hoping to rerun the smear he was selling to his Freetown buddy Todd.. [2022-02-10 02:04:51] [Robert Garry] saving this here [shared file(s): Christian Drosten rejects allegations of cover-up.pdf] [2022-02-10 02:17:07] [Eddie Holmes] Fascinating. I don't like the way it has mixed our paper with the Lancet letter. [2022-02-10 07:34:23] [Kristian Andersen] Drosten didn't know about the research at the WIV? That's hard to believe - plus, of course, we discussed it on the conference call... [2022-02-11 17:41:04] [Kristian Andersen] For my meeting on Monday, I was wondering if I should propose that all our institutions get together to make a joint statement to really push back on this? Might work quite well - and we would have minimal involvement. [2022-02-11 18:07:48] [Eddie Holmes] It would but we would also need to include Butt Lesion and that means talking to him etc I'm still strongly inclined to do nothing in response to the letter but a media release if necessary
