[Eddie Holmes] It has a certain ring to it. I hear the construction of 'Lipkin Lagoon' is proceeding at a pace. [2020-10-16 17:50:24] [Kristian Andersen] I hear it sprung some sort of leak - something about a "lesion" at one of the poles. [2020-10-16 21:05:36] [Eddie Holmes] Unrelated: I get this from Sue (Suxiang) Tong at the CDC. Please pass around: [2020-10-16 21:05:46] [Eddie Holmes] Hi Eddie, Hope you are doing well during this pandemic time. Since day 1, our team at CDC has been actively involved in WGS of SARS CoV 2. Because of this, our team has been restructured to genomics team in addition to have pathogen discovery activity. This expansion/shift involves essentially hiring a few new permanent and term-limited FTEs, contractors in our team. With that in mind, I wanted to reach out to see if you had any suggestions of recent graduates, post-docs, or other colleagues who has strong background in genomics, bioinformatics and virus evolution analysis that might be interested these opportunities. We greatly appreciate your help. Please feel free to send any suggestions or directly refer interested folks to me. Thanks and all the best.

[2020-10-17 06:06:34] [Andrew Rambaut] :tired_face: [2020-10-17 07:29:02] [Kristian Andersen] Andrew - it's been like that for months.... Not acceptable IMO. We need Trump to tweet our paper... [2020-10-17 07:56:05] [Robert Garry] https://www.thedailybeast.com/chinese-billionaires-network-hyped-hunter-biden-dirt-weeks-before-rudy Agreed! One tRump tweet would do it. The same Gnews krewe literally demonizing @Kristian Andersen and Lex [Eddie is very likely in the que] are multitasking by demonizing the Bidens. Guo/Bannon need to lay off the Jim Beam/Swisher Sweets for a few minutes and connect the dots.
