""Secondly, in the spring of 2020, a global network of internet researchers begins the search for the origin of the pandemic and uncovers astonishing details."
"In May 2020, a Twitter user with the pseudonym TheSeeker268 finds two scientific papers from China on the internet: a master's thesis written in 2013 and a doctoral thesis from 2016....."
4. Sceptical Internet Users ;)
"RaTG13 is the virus from which a short genetic sequence with the designation 4991 was isolated years ago in the copper mine..
Shi later admits this, only after sceptical internet users dug through genome databases & drew attention to the renaming"
5. Some "Drastic" members remain anonymous and cannot be identified in the great Spiegel...?
"Some "Drastic" members remain anonymous and can only be reached via a common email address."

Nice talking to you, Aleksander Sarovic!
6. Some of course are happy to talk
"Another is Gilles Demaneuf, who works as a data scientist. When a new epidemic emerged in the early 2020s, he "sensed something bad was coming". At that time, however, little was known about the new epidemic: "No one had the necessary data"

In this enlightened year of our Lord 2025 I, a humble observer of mankind’s ceaseless quest for health, find myself much struck by the ingenious practices of the Orient..
🧵2. A Scaly Panacea
...where the pangolin, that scaly denizen of subtropical climes, hath been elevated to a panacea most wondrous.
The Baicao Chinese Medicine compendium, a veritable gospel of herbal wisdom, doth proclaim the virtues of this creature’s scales...
🧵3. Humanity's Salvation?
...harvested with a diligence that would shame the most ardent of alchemists.
I propose, therefore, a modest scheme to amplify this noble tradition, ensuring that the pangolin’s sacrifice might serve the greater good of humanity.
1. What appears wasteful research to you in the present may be of great value to you or others in the future, if it is given the time to develop to its logical end.
Don’t judge the usefulness of your findings too quickly!
2. What appears wasteful or a dead end to you..
May be of immense value to somebody else!
Don’t judge the usefulness:
1. Of other people’s findings based only on your own assessment of them.
2. Of your own findings based only on your own current assessment of them either.
3. What appears wasteful and a dead end to you..
A. May be the raw stuff that new hypotheses and new research directions are born from.
B. Don’t judge the usefulness of your "investigations" until you have given them enough time to surprise you.
