If even the most notorious lab leaker changes his name to Peter, it clearly signals a show of solidarity that everyone can support. Stand against anti-Peterism. Support Peter Hotez and other Peters. Change your name to Peter!

Dr. Hotez's support campaign is booming! Rather than a drastic name change to Peter, how about a fun username update? Try NationalTreasurePeterIsMyHero_YourName. Or, if you're feeling modest like Robin, just add (Peter) at the end of your name. Go ahead, make it count!

REGENETARIANISM Florin Peter Miller Shin-jie Yong Interface Biosciences The anti-Peterism is skyrocketing. First, lab leakers got Peter Jacobs to lock his account, and now they're targeting Peter Miller. I'm sure Miller was just using anti-FOIA speak and actually meant OnlyPans. Thank you, Peter, for supporting our work.

Glad to see Jeremy Farrar pulled some strings as requested and got the World Health Organization (WHO) to take a stance against anti-Peterism. This anti-Peterism must be stopped!

Few know that Flo Debarre, an expert in debunking lab leak theories, is also a skilled hacker who doxxes lab leakers. Don’t worry, she’s ethical and does it to fight anti-science. It’s absurd we in the zoonosis community need her expertise.

This is the double shoeonosis theory, and considering that most people have two feet, it seems quite plausible.

I'm glad you appreciate the flowers, Jeremy. I'll never forget what you and your group did to help me out. Cheers!

My colleagues and I in pandemic prevention are the biggest victims of COVID-19. Conspiracy theorists have ruined our reputations, and their misinformation could lead to the next pandemic. I doubt we will ever recover from this.

I’ll let your joke slide since I'm on vacation. With funding cuts, I’m finding new ways to mix business with pleasure.

Amen to that, Angela. We will never give up. Even on vacation, I'm swabbing bats and collecting samples. These conspiracy theorists trying to stop us only make me more determined to swap more spikes, insert more furin sites, and save more lives!

Amen to that, Marion. There's no reason to suspect our Chinese friends would lie to us about causing a pandemic. I can empathize with them, as I too am being falsely accused of causing it.

Say hello to Project DIVERT (Drinking and Investigating Viral Ecosystems on a Research Trip)! We’re swabbing bats for pandemic prevention with no funding, while enjoying some R&R. Don’t worry, it’s not a COVID-19 diversion tactic. Science never stops!

Organizing bat parties? Really, folks? Bats might look adorable, but they can carry serious diseases. Drinking bat juice was bad enough, now this? Swabbing bats feels futile when such events happen.

Alex Even though viruses and bamboo rats are more my thing, I can appreciate Dr. Garry's dedication and expertise with all kinds of horses. If you like the cover, make sure to check out the book for its excellent explanatory drawings.

Alex I’m confident Dr. Garry won’t object to me sharing another page from his textbook on equine science. This page features the common unicorn. Dr. Garry claims these unicorns are quite prevalent if we only took the time to check more horses for horns.

Sampling for Project DIVERT: check! Now we’re tweaking viruses to test their leap skills. No funds? No sweat! We’re in countries where it’s super cheap. Keep calm, we’ve never sparked an outbreak!

Thanks, Dr. Cruickshank. Though you arrived a bit late, your support is deeply appreciated. Speaking out takes guts, and I know they'll probably harass you now too.

Tony Fauci is truly one of a kind—always at the cutting edge of research, pushing boundaries and exploring new frontiers. He's never afraid to tackle controversial experiments if it means advancing science and improving lives.
