Lying to Congress is a crime. @EcoHealthNYC President Dr. Peter Daszak told us he intended to conduct risky gain-of-function research in North Carolina. However, recent evidence suggests he actually planned to conduct the research in Wuhan. On May 1 — we will seek the truth.
Tonight, I’m honored to join Dr. Zasdak, Dr. Hotez, and influencer Marko Philippin at the EgoWealth Benefit. I’ll be sharing insights in "The Third That Knew: Overcoming the Knowledge Gap," aiming to contribute to our shared battle against misinformation and anti-science.
Freedom of speech is important in academia & science but difficult to navigate when it comes to politicized topics. With #OriginOfCovid, some scientists, journals & reporters have competing interests & may be blamed if research they conducted, funded or glorified caused Covid.
There are no quick fixes. Science journalists would have to check for competing interests, not trust their sources without seeing the data, and diversify their sources. At the very least, stop relying on sources who have intentionally misled journalists.
On Tuesday’s hearing, chief editor of Science said the scientific community contributed to politicization of Covid & it was wrong to paint 'lab leak' as a conspiracy theory. There was widespread consensus, Democrat or Republican, that #OriginOfCovid remains unresolved.
Honestly, I feel pretty bad. This feels like an effort to further divide those working on airborne disease. As I said, I chose to remove myself from the process once it became clear the path they were on. Others remained (many are my close friends and colleagues). (6/)

@Nature This article is off topic. Thorp is the editor of the journal that published Worobey et al and Pekar et al, not Proximal Origins. The article fails to mention Worobey/Pekar papers are crumbling under the weight of new data, errors in statistical methodology, and coding errors.

It's difficult to hear about the importance of public trust in science when billionaires are building bunkers. Covid-19 demonstrated that global & US scientific/public health infrastructure cannot tell us when a new virus is transmissible, airborne, or plausibly from a lab.
Americans saw a breakdown of scientific debate during COVID-19. Contrarian views were silenced, the lab leak theory was vilified, & scientific journals published articles without proper peer review. @RepBradWenstrup opens today's hearing examining this academic malpractice👇

“And it will to get worse. The anger is now bipartisan. Go speak with Dem Senators.” Yes the narrative that covid origins is a republican witch hunt is no longer tenable. This is now bipartisan at least in private. The misconduct is seriously damaging for trust in science.

Relevant to Alina's thread is this email I just sent to a person in Science's comms dept. I had thought i would be able to schedule a meeting with Dr Thorp, but it appears I will not get on his schedule. Hope he has enough moral courage to answer my simple Y/N question.

@DrTedros @WHO @AfricaCDC x.com/who/status/124…
FACT: #COVID19 is NOT airborne. The #coronavirus is mainly transmitted through droplets generated when an infected person coughs, sneezes or speaks. To protect yourself: -keep 1m distance from others -disinfect surfaces frequently -wash/rub your 👐 -avoid touching your 👀👃👄
Aerosols = solid or liquid suspension of particles in air. How does "infectious respiratory particle" replace/ improve this definition that has existed for decades?
@Ayjchan How? Accountability. Only with accountability can there be progress.
@lexfridman Definitely. It’s ok for a commercial media orgs to have political bias, but not taxpayer-funded orgs!
NPR CEO needs to step down. Get political bias out of NPR. We need great, balanced journalism now more than ever.

I'm instructing my legal team to explore shutting down this website, Elon. It's absurd how the upper management interacts with its customers.
I am feeling awful as it dawns on me that @WHO and other global public health organizations have officially gaslighted the world regarding an airborne infectious virus that has harmed millions of people. The virus travels in the air and can be inhaled. We knew this since SAR-1.
She's right of course. Origin has been unknown due to inconclusive evidence for 4+ years. So why all the bullshit? Can it be amended back to reality? Possibly, but it's probably too late. So many discovery opportunities lost, damage that is irreversible.
Freedom of speech is important in academia & science but difficult to navigate when it comes to politicized topics. With #OriginOfCovid, some scientists, journals & reporters have competing interests & may be blamed if research they conducted, funded or glorified caused Covid.
Although I have expertise in various fields such as virology, vinology, and singing, I am certainly not a comedian. I insist that action be taken against this fellow named Elon and this woman known as TexasLindsay. Isn't there a code of conduct on this website? It's unacceptable.
Daszak should’ve been a comedian instead of running an organization that works on pandemic-causing viruses—this is hardest I’ve laughed all day 🤣
Helpful Suggestion: If you plan to donate to EcoHealth Alliance at this evening's fundraiser, I would suggest writing a check dated May 2, 2024. This gives you a chance to cancel your donation after you see Peter Daszak testify in front of Congress on May 1.
