[Eddie Holmes] On the debit side I was just sent another (long) piece of conspiracy theory BS: https://medium.com/@yurideigin/labmade-cov2-genealogy-through-the-lens-of-gain-of-function-research-f96dd7413748 [2020-05-11 05:01:01] [Robert Garry] Yes filled with BS but credit for a bad pun [2020-05-11 05:01:26] [Robert Garry] very bad [shared file(s): image.png] [2020-05-11 05:37:07] [Robert Garry] "ABC 7:30 show here a few minutes ago Bob - brilliant job." Thanks, another Kristian rebound I think. Altmetric, however, still mired in the mid-30's. [2020-05-11 09:52:57] [Kristian Andersen] Eddie's 'early furin site' paper officially out: https://www.cell.com/current-biology/fulltext/S0960-9822(20)30662-X [2020-05-11 09:56:10] [Andrew Rambaut] Need to feed the 'Eddie is a paid shrill of the Chinese Government' angle to Fox News for a presidential tweet.

[2020-05-11 10:45:27] [Robert Garry] It's possible [cue Dumb and Dumber music] that this is the "final dot" in the Fox News scenario - Eddie and his "comrades" in Red Army did the ultimate GOF. Please tweet Mr Trump! [2020-05-11 14:27:45] [Eddie Holmes] Yes, expecting some more 'traitor' emails today. [2020-05-11 14:32:32] [Eddie Holmes] Looks like the Telegraph have now replaced my story with 'Six secrets behind the perfect pavlova' so all is well in the world. [2020-05-12 13:50:44] [Robert Garry] Long read - skip to the bold if you want to save a few moments of your life. Dr. Garry: I saw you on TV 2 Sundays ago on a show with this Tanya Rivero who has no idea about science or anything as a matter of fact but just to make President Trump looks bad, but *both of you have failed*. She was asking you questions and you we were answering her while it is more than obvious that your answers and her questions were staged. I know for sure that this was the case. The question here is why do we need to study bat corona viruses if we never had problems until the Chinese took charge of this project and destroyed the whole world? You know why you came on TV just to say something bad about President Trump with this woman that she was dictating on you what to say because she wants to say something bad about President Trump. That is the purpose only. You are a scientist and not a politician but you
