2. Bat Virus Database
Access to the database is limited only to those scientists participating in our โ€˜Bats and Coronavirusesโ€™ project
Our intention is to eventually open up this database to the larger scientific community

7. Even the so-called "professional" bat researchers working for EcoHealth often fail to use proper PPE (masks, suits), despite being well aware of the risks of infection from bats since 2013, Here is Kendra Philips and her local colleagues

8. Some "wows" have animated me to add more tweets ;)
Bat Researchers have known since 2013 about bat to human direct transmission of viruses
Here is the full advice from "SEABCRU" prepared by Kevin Olival in Pnomh Penh 2013, updated 2015

16. General Official Advice:
Has always been "Never handle a bat with bare hands. Use thick gloves or call a bat removal expert to help you remove bats from your house"
https://t.co/A5NN40GICG
But let's look at the so-called experts!
Please observe the hands...

18. Now let's take a look at the Bat Researchers in action
1. Covered Arms - No!
2. Respirator/N95 Mask - No!
3. Gloves - No!
That is Kendra Phelps from EcoHealth showing us how not to follow their own advice, putting our lives at risk with our tax money, thanks to Fauci & Daszak

We have already looked closely at Dennis Carroll, Peter Daszak, George Gao, W. Ian Lipkin & seen their public statements supporting "natural origin" & hysterical attacks on "lab leak" theories.
This thread focuses on:
Michael Kurilla
Jonna Mazet
Edward Rubin (Metabiota)

If we look at the leadership team of GVP, you will see some familiar faces:
