1. "Everything starts here, everything disappears from here, & the South China Seafood Market will become clean!"
Interesting Chinese report about the South China Seafood Market & WCDC's pathogen Lab at 288 Machang Road which makes many insinuations yet has not been censored
yet

2. "I'm here for the second time to take samples!" Shi Zhengli, a researcher at the Wuhan Institute of Virology, Chinese Academy of Sciences, appeared at the South China Seafood Market at 17:00 on March 3. On the same day, she and her team took two boxes of samples.
3. Shi Zhengli collects samples from the market to study environmental survival of the coronavirus
"It's not easy to come once" ;)
"Compared with CCDC we have taken much fewer samples, & findings are the same as their results
"They found more than we found, & we found nothing"
4. March the 3rd - 5th - The WCDC "Killing Teams" Arrive
5. "The Thin Lady"
Faced with doubts, on Feb 2, Shi Zhengli declared:
"I, Shi Zhengli, bet my life, it has nothing to do with our laboratory."
Her "statement" was widely questioned.
As of March 3, doubts were still flying, & Zhengli's appearance at the Market was eye-catching.
6. Meanwhile...
"I've been here all the time. I stayed at the market, I wasn't infected. Do I deserve to be infected?"
At 16:00 on March 1, a cheeky left-behind worker in the market was lying on his back on the sofa chain smoking, and seemed a little bit upset.
7. The worker's POV
8. "Slipper Brother"
"A family of 4 in Wuhan lived in the South China Seafood Market for 43 days without wearing protective clothing but were not infected"
60-year-old Gu & family didn't leave after it was closed on Jan 1

9. The Fate of the South China Seafood Market?
Earlier, there was news that "the South China market will completely disappear." The staff member responded, "The hoarded items on the site will be disposed of. Of course, the main building will not be demolished."
10. The Killing Teams ;)
A killer who wished to remain anonymous revealed that there had been several disinfections
Some shops have small attics & killers need to climb up ladders before killing them
"It's slippery so you need to be very careful when you go up & down the ladder"
11. The Responsibility of a Killer
"The killer said that according to the killing plan formulated on Feb 25, when the market materials are cleared out, all the killing teams are also responsible for the complete disinfection of the materials"
12. What we already know or at least what we have been told
13. The Market Ownership (1)

"South China Seafood Market refused to cooperate when undergoing random inspections on Dec 19, 2019
People infected with the coronavirus had been detected at that time, but they had not formally notified the public."
20. Did you get that?
December 19th....Inspections...Refused to Cooperate...Had been Detected...Not formally notified the Public"
https://t.co/l2oNUiDJqu
WTF?
21. Mr. Wang, a 47-year-old security guard who worked here for 3 years, said the market before the epidemic was very lively, but now in depression, apart from the professionals who come several times a day to disinfect & do some tests, no one else is seen.

"According to company's information, on Dec 19, 2019, South China Seafood Market did not cooperate with the Xiantao Market Supervision & Administration Bureau to verify the relevant situation"
23. Infuenza & Pneumonia Warning System
Li Jing mentioned that Wuhan had a higher incidence of influenza this year than in previous years. "This year is a warm winter, and the flu is very serious. It is difficult to buy even masks in pharmacies outside"

1. Thread: RaTG13 Real or Fake?
A Norwegian Scientist @Vehuardo recently claimed RaTG13 is an "authentic virus"
https://t.co/tAXMNTwdhA
This failed to take into account the work of our DRASTIC colleagues & other published analyses.
This thread is a polite attempt to educate.

2.
https://t.co/tw606vgHwp
which says RaTG13 doesn't make sense on how it was sequenced, or how the data got so messed up in the lab as to include copy paste mistakes, bat dna, pangolin dna, rice dna, mice dna, & nobody should use it to form conclusions until it's properly vetted

2 (cont)
"sequence is incomplete & provided segment doesn't function. The identified markers suggest partial match basis & actual virus itself as described by the sequence can't functionally exist due to incoherent structures that appear to be the result of sample contamination"

Viruses and other pathogens are often studied as stand-alone entities, despite that, in nature, they mostly live in multispecies associations called biofilms—both externally and within the host.

https://t.co/FBfXhUrH5d


Microorganisms in biofilms are enclosed by an extracellular matrix that confers protection and improves survival. Previous studies have shown that viruses can secondarily colonize preexisting biofilms, and viral biofilms have also been described.


...we raise the perspective that CoVs can persistently infect bats due to their association with biofilm structures. This phenomenon potentially provides an optimal environment for nonpathogenic & well-adapted viruses to interact with the host, as well as for viral recombination.


Biofilms can also enhance virion viability in extracellular environments, such as on fomites and in aquatic sediments, allowing viral persistence and dissemination.
