As a virologist I tend to think researchers on X don't look nearly enough at the biology. Maybe they don't trust the peer-reviewed research? Imo usually the research is pretty sound but biases against the #lableak appear routinely in the conclusions.....
In the spike of #SC2 all the AA changes it has that are not found in other related CoVs (S50, A372 and H519) also happen to be known contributors to the structural integrity of the spike in bat CoVs. @SolidEvidence did not elaborate on these...

The Future of the lab leak theory, a Twitter/X thread about #COVID19 and the origin of #SARS-COV-2
1/ Many people on Twitter are, like Nicholas Wade, wondering if the latest DEFUSE revelations from @emilyakopp and @USRTK are maybe the last word on the great #covidorigin #lableak debate. They are not. usrtk.org/wp-content/upl…

There is a fatal flaw in the Huanan market #originofcovid theory.
How and why scientists at #NIDO2023, the coronavirus conference, spied on me, stole from me, and censored me. #CovidOrigins.
In 2 words: "Raccoon dogs" independentsciencenews.org/commentaries/t…
This article describes my incredible experiences at three European #Virology conferences in April and May: The #PathogensProject, #ECV2023, and #NIDO2023. That trip exposed a new nexus of scientists working to fix the facts around the #OriginOfCovid and the market origin.

1/few. Attendees of #Nido2023 may be wondering why I am not being allowed to ask questions of the speakers. Attendees should know too that I was denied the right to share our printed scientific articles. No reason given so far except the "instructions of @ProfVolkerThiel" ...
2/few.
So here are the dangerous papers you are not being allowed to see: independentsciencenews.org/commentaries/a…
and independentsciencenews.org/health/did-wes…
One reason may be that last week at #ECV2023 Prof Martin Beer, collaborator with @ProfVolkerThiel embarrassed himself with terrible answers to my...

1/3 My experience of #Nido2023 (the coronavirus meeting in Montreux) so far 1) The organisers refused to let me share the materials I bought. That is, two articles, one on #Ebola2014 and our proposed origin of SARS-CoV-2
1/7:
Last week at the European Congress of Virology in Gdansk #ECV2023 I deep-sixed the raccoon dog market theory of #Covidorigins by questioning Martin Beer, senior author about their key paper (Freuling et al. 2020)
2/7 I asked why they tested a more transmissible G614 strain and not the original D614 strain, which would have supported or eliminated raccoon dogs as a potential intermediate host.
His answer was not "thanks, good idea we'll jump to it". He stumbled a bit and then, incredibly.

1/9 with @samhusseini we did a #deepdive investigation into the origin of the #Ebola2014 outbreak in W. Africa. The text is long. It follows up #Lableak Qs originally raised by @africanistpress and others. Below are distilled some of the key points. independentsciencenews.org/health/did-wes…2) The orthodox origin story has negligible evidence to support it. No #Ebola was found at Meliandou, Guinea, or elsewhere in wild animals nor was it diagnosed or positively tested in 'patient zero' or his contacts. The nearest known wild source was a whopping 3,000 km away
Wanted to try a twitter tutorial (our first, so bear with it) on the v. interesting #CRISPR issues raised by the recent birth of #geneedited#Calf "Cosmo", thx to @UCDavis researcher @BioBeef. Author @MeganMolteni gamely brought in some perspective but no technical critic, so....
The following are issues neglected or barely raised in the text but should be born in mind while reading the article, which described attempts to add the SRY sex "determining" gene and make all male animals: wired.com/story/a-crispr…
