@breakfast_dogs @Biorealism @Dissenting2020 @THEMONTHLY @ABCscience @BillyBostickson @BiophysicsFL The WIV received a dedicated gag order from the National Health Commission on Jan 1st, 2020. From there, there was nothing to expect from it.

One of the most dishonest talking points of gain of function virologists is that no pandemic in human history was ever caused by a lab leak. Stu Neil @stuartjdneil inadvertently highlights the absurdity of that claim: there was never a Roman Institute of Virology!
These people are so boringly predictable...😂 They were scouring for posts on H5N1 origins so that they could unleash braindead takes like this⬇️ Aside: Is Neil unable to understand @nizzaneela's critique of Pekar? "all flu phylogenetics is made up" 🤦♂️

@Biorealism @tommy2t45103307 @HansMahncke @Dissenting2020 @ydeigin @Ticklicker56 I’m partial to the wise Eddie Holmes argument
Always handy to have a negative strip of Western blot that you can use four times in the same figure! One of the corresponding authors is a Nobel Prize winner @Stanford, the other one works @scrippsresearch. #ImageForensics pubpeer.com/publications/2…
@gdemaneuf The scientific enterprise cannot function if even occasional dishonesty becomes a widely accepted practice.
@Bryce_Nickels What original data about H5N1 has been collected by either Worobey or Debarre? Or for that matter, what original data potentially relevant to the origins of SARS-CoV-2 was collected by either? (Zero)
Open letter to fellow intellectually challenged lab leak grifters and conspiracy theorists: Although some of the scientists involved in investigating the origins of H5N1 frequently lie (worobey, debarre, etc.), all available evidence point to a natural, not a lab origin.
I am actually afraid that some people may start thinking that H5N1 is a lab leak, just because the extremely unreliable Worobey and Debarre are commenting on it. Their past mistakes, how bad they may be, should not colour the current H5N1 outbreak.

What's most worrisome to me is why no one but Yuri Deigin is spending time pointing this out. Certainly a coronavirologist somewhere in the world has a skosh of curiosity about having somebody look into this. But no.

@ydeigin And that no trace of the virus was ever found anywhere along the 1000 miles route it had to take from Yunnan to Wuhan. Funny how such a highly infectious virus only decided to infect people once it arrived in Wuhan.
Covid origin really comes down to which of the following is more likely: 1) The Wuhan Institute of Virology found the kind of SARS-like virus it set out to look for in late 2018 (with a “highly variable” spike that is 10-25% different from SARS1 but still able to enter human…
It's the deceit that is so shocking. So many of them said one thing in public and another in private.

@ydeigin If you scroll his entire tedious thread you learn it hinges on the idea the missing WIV database consists entirely of 163 partial sequences. Seems like he’s from the Flo Debarre school of using sheer volume of info to disguise his dishonesty.
@BiophysicsFL lol when people realise the mutation history, variants, etc of the naturally developing bird flu virus endemic in one species, then several, then finally ONE HUMAN; is the evidence we ought to be able to find if Covid19 arose naturally.
Same: Florence Débarre and Michael Worobey Different: "single introduction from wild birds" led to "protracted, undetected spread" with genetic diversity for months.The scientists also admit data quality isn't great, and may be missing a lot of infections nature.com/articles/d4158…

@mbalter It seems many people who are in our government -- and used to serve previously -- have a greater allegiance to the Israeli government than our own. This is a critical threat to America. Perhaps The critical threat.
@RJessell @virologyanon @DrHermiz They did not find infected animals. They found some environmental samples that had both animal DNA and the virus. The difference is stark and important. Basically, they found evidence of animals in an animal market and found the virus in a place with many infected humans.
@ydeigin I’m baffled by the virological mechanism arguement against a sadly common, and more Occam friendly, human procedural failure argument.
@ydeigin And that no trace of the virus was ever found anywhere along the 1000 miles route it had to take from Yunnan to Wuhan. Funny how such a highly infectious virus only decided to infect people once it arrived in Wuhan.

If this is being forced on the UCSD computer science department, I suggest they up the math requirement for the major until the number of students who want to major in CS < available slots.

@gtuckerkellogg @MJnanostretch Greg, I’m still very troubled by them using the non-scientific term “dispositive” in the preprint and with the media when they pitched the preprint. I don’t think it’s acceptable to put language in a preprint that one does not believe can make it past peer review.
