Does anybody know when these experiments were performed? From the paper it seems possible that this work was done before the pandemic but publication was delayed till this year. Maarten De Cock Jay Bhattacharya Richard H. Ebright

Why is the Department of Energy trying so hard to keep secret what it may know about the origins of the COVID-19 pandemic? Our joint status report to federal Judge Trevor McFadden: usrtk.org/wp-content/upl… #FOIA

"Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it" A new blog by NIH Acting Assoc Dir for International Research omits a key fact about international collaborations & the COVID-19 pandemic--namely, that an NIH-funded international collaboration likely caused it

😅 The only meaningful 'biodefense' is improved public health infrastructure, messaging, etc. Anything else (snooping on adversarial countries via collaborations, tit-for-tat crazy research, etc) is just a dangerous & moronic grift.

Fogarty International Center provides no--zero--value to US taxpayers. Fogarty International Center channeled US-taxpayer funds to the reckless research in Wuhan that caused COVID. Fogarty should be defunded and dismantled. Jay Bhattacharya, MD, PhD Secretary Kennedy Senator Rand Paul

African swine fever outbreak in Spain: authorities are now probing a possible lab leak as the virus belongs to an unusual genetic group

Two lab leaks causing mass infections have been reported in two months: a lab leak causing African swine fever virus infections in Spain, and a lab leak causing Newcastle disease virus infections in China. Virology labs leak like sieves. This madness needs to end.

Surely the centroid of the outbreak is absolutely not the nearby lab that just published a paper on that very strain of ASF. tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.10… elpais.com/clima-y-medio-…

There's an imminent sting on the local jamón mongers to determine how many spillovers there were. Let's get those phylodynamic models started!

Gilles Demaneuf Virologists are blaming contaminated sausage: "the virus may have reached the wild boars from a contaminated foreign sausage sandwich discarded in the trash" elpais.com/clima-y-medio-…

PREDICTION: Fewer laboratory accidents involving dangerous viruses would occur if virologists cared as much about public safety as they do about publishing even a mediocre paper in the Journal of Virology.

Virology is scary not because its practitioners are mad geniuses. In fact, it's the opposite - the field is evidently teeming with morons ("scientists") who can't even gaslight intelligently and yet get to fool around ("research") with WMD.

FY26 Defense spending bill negotiated by House & Senate was just released. Calls for declassification & release of documents related to gain-of-function research in China and the origin of COVID within 180 days of bill being enacted House vote expected this week
