1. Science turns nasty in Covid-19 origins argument on Twitter

8 solid mentions of the work of #DRASTIC thanks to Eduardo Baptista and Simone McCarthy

Archived: archive.ph/PNDvs

Original:

scmp.com/news/china/sci…
2. Rabbit Holes

The main actors in this whistle-blower detour down the lab-leak rabbit hole include the group of internet activists known as DRASTIC, which published the documents
3. Whistleblower

Backing the headline were documents that DRASTIC said came from the unidentified whistle-blower. They showed that EcoHealth Alliance in 2018 applied for a federal grant to study bat coronaviruses with three other US research groups
4. Twitter, not?
5. DRASTIC Steps

The activists at DRASTIC, who include scientists as well as those who remain anonymous, argue that their work has made important discoveries in demanding a full investigation of all Covid-19 origin hypotheses
6. @stuartjdneil denounces those who call #DRASTIC cranks or conspiracy theorists and insists our work has great value.

Thank you, world renowned Professor of Virology for your continuing support!

Baric's hACE2 transgenic mice were shared with the WIV for GOF like virus experiments designed to "assess" the potential for coronaviruses to jump from animals to humans.

We asked how many were sent to WIV

2. Baric spills his humanized mice beans to Father Racaniello during a heart rending TWIV confessional in March 2020, admitting he sent his hACE2 mice to WIV in 2018 (as part of the infamous NIAID grant mentioned above):

"Our R01 work shows that bats in South China harbor many SARSr-CoVs (50+), some of which are able to use human ACE2 to enter human cells, infecting humanized mouse models to cause SARS-like illness, and evade available therapies or vaccines"

1. New England Biolabs & Novagen

The amplified Rp3-S1 fragment was digested with BamHI & XhoI & ligated into the expression vector pMAL-C2X (New England Biolabs).

The 5 truncated fragments were digested with BamHI & XhoI and ligated into the expression vector pET32a (Novagen).
2. Promega & Takara

Protein expression & purification

After purification, recombinant plasmid was transformed into BL21 competent cells (purchased from Promega)

Recovered PCR product & expression vector pET32a were digested with restriction endonucleases BamHI & XhoI (Takara).
3. Takara (2)

After DNA recovery, the PCR product was ligated to the expression vector pET32a using T4 DNA ligase (Takara)

Pressure is needed on people like @realannapaulina @RepLuna & @GOPoversight team as their mandate may dissolve in August.

They did Kennedy, but they are supposed to do UFO files & CoVid-19 origins before they dissolve.

We also need to know about the subpoenas sent by @RandPaul
What was promised and demanded (for the record)

🧵Rev. Billy's Lab Leak Cover-Up Sermon

1. Brethren, hear me now, for we stand at the precipice of a great & grievous iniquity!

The world has been ensnared by a monstrous conspiracy, a vile machination spun by a clique of scientists, experts, media scribes & state overlords!
🧵2. Let us never forget!

Those who, in their arrogance, have sought to veil the truth of the COVID pestilence!

And I say to you today, that this is no mere error, but a deliberate, diabolical plot to obscure the origins of a plague that has scourged the nations!
🧵3. The Vocabulary of Deception

Let us expose this falsehood, this house of deceit

& the duties of the vigilant in these perilous times!

Oh, what a wretched lexicon these deceivers employ! Their words are cloaked in the garb of science, yet they reek of falsehood & treachery!
