[2021-02-05 07:46:09] [Robert Garry] Seriously Alina and Ebright https://twitter.com/Ayjchan/status/1357691160198807552 THis is garbage... [2021-02-05 07:52:15] [Andrew Rambaut] [thread - ID: 2021-02-05 07:52:15] It isn't entirely wrong - I heard from someone else that they had got a paper to review from Nature and they said they weren't going to review it until the genome was released. Then Jeremy's tweet and Eddie persuading Zhang to release it. [2021-02-05 07:52:42] [Kristian Andersen] The part about Nature is probably correct. The part involving "Ed" I'm sure isn't [2021-02-05 07:53:33] [Kristian Andersen] Instead of reading Twitter, watch this instead. https://youtu.be/lgGmYeAm0jk. It'll make you feel better. [2021-02-05 07:55:15] [Robert Garry] THis is the part in particular I do not like - [shared file(s): image.png] [2021-02-05 07:58:46] [Andrew Rambaut] Yes - that is wrong. [2021-02-05 07:58:55] [Kristian Andersen] "They" [2021-02-05 07:59:34] [Andrew Rambaut] The embargo is just the standard, wait until we tell you to release it but give us an accession number. [2021-02-05 07:59:57] [Andrew Rambaut] And in the mean time George was pissing around with getting GISAID to setup something for them. [2021-02-05 08:03:25] [Robert Garry] Someone in the news media needs put out the real story and timeline - Alina and Ebright already no doubt working their magic with the spews media ... [2021-02-05 08:09:50] [Robert Garry] I'm sure that those two are already pushing the narrative that Eddie and Zhang were going to hold the sequences until July... [2021-02-05 09:29:39] [Robert Garry] The deletion at Y144 {Y145} It''s out of frame as well right? [2021-02-05 12:27:26] [Kristian Andersen]
