7. Investigators at WIV could have performed such experiments in coronavirus gof manipulation, trying to obtain a live attenuated virus for attenuated vaccine, based on covs isolated from Yunnan, when there was a laboratory accident/leak of virus in 2019https://t.co/pdmdNM9lTZ pic.twitter.com/8aUMIoyF6W

Researchers will be required to conduct field surveillance of animal & insect species in high-risk areas around the world; sequence viruses as they evolve; analyze jump risk & finally, validate models using simulated natural environments

"Transmissible vaccines face some hurdles before they hit the wild. Among the challenges is the risk of a vaccine spreading beyond the intended population or jumping into different animals, with potentially unpredictable results"
@JohnsHopkinsSPH is part of a PREEMPT team led by @montanastate working to predict & prevent spillover of henipavirus from bats into humans & other animals. Learn how the team conducts field surveillance to identify the paths a virus takes into humans.https://t.co/TvpgHFIqIF

It is astonishing the number of pies they had their dirty little fingers poking into:

1. DARPA/DTRA use NGOs like Ecohealth or Metabiota to collect new pathogens
2. They are sent to US labs (Mailman, Rocky Mountain, Atlanta CDC, UNC, USAMRIID) for GOF work by Lipkin, Nichols, Rasmussen, Baric, Dension, Munster, etchttps://t.co/wqhHK7uZO6

2. A refreshing contrast to the so-called "expert reactions" found here, including from one of the authors of the review (Prof David Robertson)!
"expert reaction to a preprint reviewing the evidence on the origins of SARS-CoV-2"
https://t.co/6kG6rstweP
3. Peter Gutierrez points out in his response that 4 of the authors of “The Origins of SARS-CoV-2: A Critical Review”, also wrote “Proximal Origin of SARS-COV-2”.
His critique focuses on:
1. RaTG13
2. Enhanced adaptation to the human host
https://t.co/eW8b2iK5xe
4. As to be expected, Sydney University and its iconic virologist, Eddie Holmes, who is "not available for interview", are crowing over this biased review
https://t.co/xrjpN1NxpO
This review contains elementary errors as exposed here:
1. https://t.co/YJ50huifly
one of the authors (Stuart Neil) then claimed
"Didn’t N501Y come up in ACE2 TG mice too?
