1. The csdata 61.5 mb zip file was removed during the pandemic, not before. 2. csdata page 404ed later 3. zip file not hosted on WIV servers so claims of hack attempts are bullshit. 4. Hack attacks highlighted by WIV in 2019 on WIV website
@flodebarre@zhihuachen@coroldo1@emmecola@henri_mourant@stuartjdneil@mrandersoninneo 5 Csdata 61.5 mb zip file was static "expression" of WIV database (according to csdata regulations: No Data, No paper)
6 When Csdata discovered WIV removed zip file, they eventually 404ed the page.
7 Other bat virus databases managed by WIV were taken offline at different dates
13. In contrast, the thorough painstaking work of dedicated people such as "Anon", @billybostickson @gdemaneuf & @daoyu15 have indeed stood the test of time
"finally, the time has slip and slid its slimy course through to us - and we're the vicious bastards of the new generation. we do not relent, and we should not be held to account for our ancestral faults"
"An understanding of the relationship between the presence of vectorized H7N9 & SARS-CoV-2 in early cOVID-19 patients’ samples should be a focus of further inquiry"
"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)
"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"
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.
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

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