Seems like the csv files from relational database to collate & share project data: wabnet.eha.io
have been emptied of data & just left with headings (or never completed which is unlikely):
1. Barcoding 2. Bat Data (note Coronavirus Columns) 3. Screening 4. Site Data
All empty of Data....
5. Trapping Events 6. Site Photographs 7. Site Videos 8. Acoustic Recordings
But Data was collected...
So, can someone ask Kevin J Olival @nycbat@EpsteinJon@klphelps Nisreen Alhmoud, Shahzad Ali, Rasit Bilgin, Keti Sidamonidze, Lela Urushadze, Luke Hamel @lukemh97 or William Karesh @Dr_Wildlife (EHA) for the data?
What Data?
270 bats in 2 countries
5,000 Bats (2018 -2023)
20,000 Samples screened for Coronaviruses
(at Lugar Lab in Georgia)
I would love to be able to ask, but they don't like inquisitive Monkeys at Eco Death Alliance ;)
Their published paper:
Bat Research Networks and Viral Surveillance: Gaps and Opportunities in Western Asia
We certainly know that some Lugar Centre collected Georgian coronavirus infected bat samples were "shipped" to Atlanta CDC BSL4 for experiments, and how they were shipped:
Documents here in Russian, mainly on Ukrainian "biolabs" & some references to Georgia, which is for me, a more interesting focus, given the bat cov research & proven transport of samples to US

This thread is about Georgia, not about the so-called "ukrainian biolabs", a campaign likely being used opportunistically during the fog of war, as discussed in detail here:

2. The Making of the Documentary (20 minutes)
"Unfolding like true crime, this detective story takes us deep into clashing conspiracy theories & partisanship while exposing the dangers posed by experiments regularly taking place in the world’s biolabs"
"It’s about the future of biotech and the next pandemic. We wanted to make a contentious story really exciting, with twists and turns, that covers the science but with a strong dramatic structure"
