“The SARS-CoV-2 site has more of the hallmarks of sloppy natural evolution than a human hand.”

The same hubris that asserts labs never leak asserts humans have a less sloppy hand than nature...

Dr. Rasmussen (@angie_rasmussen) could be the poster child of anthropocentrism. A dangerous bias of human infallibility, superiority, and with known negative consequences toward logical thinking. Image
This would also be a compelling piece if only:

-the database of all their viruses wasn’t deleted in Sept. 2019

-Daszak hadn’t tipped his hand that they were currently studying over 50 (not all disclosed) viruses in humanized mice capable of infecting humans in Nov. 2019 Image
I’d also steer curious minds to intriguing speculation with some convincing arguments by @ydeigin that this virus may well have been such a “pan-coronavirus vaccine” project itself. So, is it worth it to approach that goal with GoF research? Let’s have that discussion. Image

At the beginning of trying to engage with prominent virologists over the origin possibilities of SARS2 I was confused why they were making the easily spottable & fallacious “absence of evidence is evidence of absence” argument. (1/n)
(2/n) I was confused how they were convinced that consistency with natural evolution meant it precluded a laboratory leak. I was confused too they conclude this was “not a purposefully manipulated virus” when it was possible it could have been.
(3/n) I was confused why they would downplay and never engage with other scientists that called attention to peculiar strains of evidence like a furin cleavage insertion site using an unlikely CGG CGG back-to-back codon usage.
