1. New #RaTg13 paper from @stvevenemassey

Exclusive to #DRASTIC

SARS-CoV-2's closest relative, RaTG13 was generated from a bat transcriptome not a fecal swab

Implications for the origin of COVID-19

2. Three explanatory threads by @stevenemassey

Evidence for ‘live’ RaTG13 at WIV, Part 1



Evidence for ‘live’ RaTG13 at WIV, Part 2



Evidence for ‘live’ RaTG13 at WIV, Part 3

3. Abstract
4. A useful educational thread on RaTG13 by me ;)



Here you will find previous papers on RaTg13 by @MonaRahalkar and @BahulikarRahul and @daoyu15
5. Worth remembering the State Department claim

6. Conclusion: We were lied to over and over again!

7. Question: "what is a bat transcriptome"
Answer vía @pathogenetics

"That portion of a bat DNA genome that is transcribed into RNA. (The rest is not), so basically the important part of a genome, which means that having these translated bits from a bat's transcriptome...
8. Answer continued

....showing up in the sequence data of the virus genomes, says this viral sequence was propagated in live bat cells, as only live bat cells can transcribe bat DNA into transcribed Bat RNA"

1. Anonymous Critique of the recent paper by Worobey

Dissecting the early COVID-19 cases in Wuhan

science.org/doi/10.1126/sc…

"The article is, frankly speaking, utter bullshit. It’s a review of available data & the very first referenced work states the opposite of what he claims"
2. Quote from Worobey

“Despite assertions to the contrary (1), it is now clear that live mammals susceptible to coronaviruses, including raccoon dogs (Nyctereutes procyonoides), were sold at Huanan Market & three other live-animal markets in Wuhan before the pandemic (2, 3).”
3. Incorrect Citations

Plainly, reference 1 should assert that no live mammals susceptible to coronaviruses were sold at the live animal markets in Wuhan.

In fact, reference 1 states the exact opposite on Pages 8 and 108 (conclusions)

This article is not off to a good start… Image

2. Multi-agent/agent specific thrust

"the approach. will be targeted to a specific pathogen, but It Is applicable to several different pathogens. For example, an approach may be used to develop therapeutics against 20 different pathogens" Image
3. Professor Ron Taylor

This project started in May 1996 at the University of Virginia. Taylor and his colleagues developed a heteropolymer that functions on the one end to connect to the CR 1 site of the red blood cells, while the other end is tailored to the specific pathogen. Image

1. Edward Hopper reveals dirt on Eddie Holmes, Andrew Rambaut, Michael Worobey, Kristian Anderson, Jon Cohen & Robert Garry

Old rumours resurface?

"all 3 men who helped write the Andersen article (Holmes, Rambaut & Garry) have been prominent in the OPV debate"

h/t @alexandrosM
2. Scrutiny of Anderson et al authors

Let’s take a look at the co-authors of the March 17th Nature letter:

I realised, to my surprise, that I had already encountered 3 of the 5 co-authors & they were not people whose work had impressed me on identifying the origins of diseases
3. Eddie Holmes

"It is therefore possible that he is unconsciously sympathetic to Chinese colleagues, and sensitised to avoiding the causing of embarrassment to his hosts"

SE Asian Bat shipments to WIV make it into the

@TheSun & @Dailytelegraph

1. BAT TO RIGHTS!

China had virus-ridden bat samples shipped from South Asia to Wuhan as bombshell evidence could help solve Covid origin

2. @dailytelegraph

New documents back theory that Covid outbreak started in Wuhan lab

The emails uncovered by White Coat Waste Project suggest that viral DNA from “bats and other high-risk species” were sent to Wuhan between 2017 and 2019.

"EcoHealth Alliance was approached for comment but had not responded at the time of publication"

Well Done @WhiteCoatWaste for exposing their secrets with this FOIA lawsuit by @anthonybellotti and @JustinRGoodman

Great analysis of Worobey's Map and its errors by @danwalker9999
Analysis by @gdemaneuf

Just stating the obvious that THE FIRST CASE WAS NOT IN DECEMBER exposes the mendicant analysis of that recent piece, which feeds of the scraps of data left by China and then props itself up on odd logical shortcuts.

Useful Point by @baobaoxiaoliao
Dr.Worobey, here are some information you might interest in. In the early stage of the outbreak, China Gov only allows patients with Market contact history to receive tests. Is that a bias that can cause misinterpretation?
