[2022-04-29 07:47:24] [Andrew Rambaut] Makes sense. Everyone was talking about Covid but Ian would make it about himself [2022-04-29 07:48:39] [Andrew Rambaut] I guess he would have had a reasonable chance of ending up on a ventilator back then [2022-04-29 07:49:06] [Kristian Andersen] Yup, that's my thinking as well. [2022-04-29 07:56:32] [Robert Garry] https://ph.news.yahoo.com/coronavirus-hits-expert-ian-lipkin-035151784.html [2022-04-29 07:57:45] [Robert Garry] At least he didn't go on the Today show 5 days in a row... [2022-04-29 12:56:53] [Robert Garry] Kristian - hope your your CDC grant writing is progressing. Any insight into the paper progress - something about the BEAST? I see you added @Eddie Holmes to the Pekar channel. Marc's OK? Easy for so many cooks to get bogged down. [2022-04-29 13:05:26] [Kristian Andersen] Honestly not sure where Mike is on revisions - I'm buried by the grant. I talked to him about it last week, but I haven't seen much progress - maybe ping him with a DM? [2022-04-29 13:10:55] [Robert Garry] Yeah - Marc's comment kinda thru me off... [2022-04-29 13:15:21] [Kristian Andersen] Which one? [2022-04-29 13:21:41] [Robert Garry] "Marc was overly pessimistic about informativeness of data and should never be left (partially ... at least Joel stepped in) alone with executive biology-based decisions." [2022-04-29 13:21:55] [Kristian Andersen] Oh - I think that likely had to do with SARS1. [2022-04-29 13:26:10] [Robert Garry] Ah yeah - someone - You and Stephen should write that SARS1 stuff up. Not a big rush after 20 years but important to put the multi-transfers out there with the Hubai civets - problem with trying to write a Science paper when the Editor wants it tight is you can't include everything in the detail you would like.
