BREAKING: Our preprint titled "Repeated emergence of probabilistically and chronologically anomalous mutations in SARS-CoV-2 during the COVID-19 pandemic" has just been published. The data suggest possibility of repeated lab leaks during the pandemic. zenodo.org/record/8216232
The preprint was first posted to bioRxiv, but they rejected it, saying "bioRxiv is intended for complete research papers with new data/analysis and your submission does not fall into that article type." Please read the paper to see whether bioRxiv is fair in its decision.
This is the 2nd time bioRxiv rejects our preprint. In the 1st case, the rejected paper was peer-reviewed and accepted to a journal shown below. We plan to submit the above preprint to a journal under no pressure from Western virologists to see the result. jstage.jst.go.jp/article/ipsjtb…

In late July, I had a talk with a famous Japanese virologist in an internet program. He said he had found the sequence of SARS-CoV-2 suspicious, but he kept silent because it would make research using BSL-4 labs in Japan all the more difficult. nicovideo.jp/watch/so408449…
Here's a summary of our talk in English.
MC: Another surge of coronavirus infection, emergence of monkey pox. It seems endless. How will things turn out?
M(Miyazawa): When the pandemic broke out, I found the virus suspicious, but believed it had originated from nature...
But Omicron was more suspicious, and now the monkeypox. The reaction to monkeypox by WHO and CDC is apparently weird, which makes me think of a possibility of plandemic. Horrific.
K(Kakeya): Omicron has 30 or more mutations in spike...
"It is true that statistical bias alone, even if it is extreme, cannot be a definitive proof of lab-leak. Direct proofs of genetic modification in a laboratory are needed for final judgement." zenodo.org/record/7066413
"The problem is lack of transparency in the current culture of life science. The Wuhan Institute of Virology took its virus database offline in September 2019 and has never shared the data since. It also has never accepted full inspection of its facilities by a third party."
"In case of forensic investigation, prosecutors are allowed to raid the suspect when an investigation warrant is issued by the judiciary. A compulsory investigation is admitted when circumstantial evidences strongly support the prosecutor’s claim."
Our paper below, which shows that the Omicron variant is highly likely a product of artificial genetic modification, is accepted to a journal after two rounds of peer reviews. The fact that the reviewers agree with our conclusion means a lot. zenodo.org/record/6904363
I've just received notification of acceptance and the reviewed version is under editorial process. Though the accepted version includes some major revisions, the gist remains the same. I keep the journal name secret at this moment. Zoonosis proponents may harass the publisher.
The paper will be published in a month or two in a journal of an academic society with around 20,000 members, so it's not a predatory journal. I'm not like Fauci, who hides everything unfavorable. We can't make public the reviewed version now, for we've transferred the copyright.
