[2020-09-14 14:47:33] [Kristian Andersen] "If we just ignore all the more recent data, then the data clearly shows this was created in the lab. Sorta". [2020-09-14 14:54:48] [Kristian Andersen] Here's the PDF in case it disappears again... [shared file(s): The_Yan_Report.pdf] [2020-09-14 15:05:34] [Eddie Holmes] Yes, chatting with Jon Cohen about it now. What total shit. [2020-09-14 15:07:16] [Eddie Holmes] The accusations at the end that RmYN02 and the pangolin sequences are fraudulent seems like defamation to me (and I'm on these papers). I'm going to chat the co-authors about whether we want to pursue legal action. [2020-09-14 15:08:47] [Kristian Andersen] Yeah, Jon's been emailing - fishing. [2020-09-14 15:08:56] [Kristian Andersen] Love this part [shared file(s): Screen Shot 2020-09-14 at 11.31.24 AM.png] [2020-09-14 15:09:12] [Kristian Andersen] Citation 17 is "Eddie Holmes' CV" :wink: [2020-09-14 15:10:03] [Kristian Andersen] Proposing that all the bat and pangolin sequences are fraudulent and hence SARS-CoV-2 is a lab construct is - well, absurd. We have people like Alina to thank for this. [2020-09-14 15:13:18] [Eddie Holmes] Ugh. I had better call the University lawyers this morning. [2020-09-14 15:46:01] [Kristian Andersen] Worth pointing out that "Rule of Law Foundation" and "Rule of Law Society" can be found here: https://rolsociety.org/en/ and https://rolfoundation.org/. Worth clicking through and looking at the photos... [2020-09-14 15:48:57] [Eddie Holmes] Brilliant! Totally independent then. [2020-09-14 15:49:31] [Kristian Andersen] Totally. [btw, this could get ugly, so we might need to respond at some point - but let's see what happens] [2020-09-14 15:52:03]
