Works at Scripps Research Institute, which WAS in serious financial trouble, haemorrhaging 20 million $ a year.
But just when the first virus cases were emerging, they received great news.
They issued a press release dated November 27, 2019:
“Scripps Research and Shenzhen Bay Laboratory (China) today announced a trans-Pacific chemical biology research collaboration that combines the expertise of both institutions.”
https://t.co/KVHRgu8CID
"Scripps Research faculty will establish joint labs at Shenzhen Bay Lab with research areas including synthetic chemistry, natural products, glycobiology, chemical genetics, proteomics & other critical areas of chemical biology"
"SZBL strives to become a hub for world-class research at forefront of innovation, spurring novel solutions to issues challenging mankind"
https://t.co/TuRtueRKzL
"a new bio-tech lab set up next to HK with the HK protest in full swing, in partnership with a bankrupt firm whose head scientist is a cheer-leader for genomic surveillance, funded with CCP money in late Nov 2019.
Nothing fishy about that at all!
Scripps is a supporter of remdesivir, also endorsed by WIV which applied for a patent for the drug.

Andersen accuses Peter of hoarding virus sequences for private use!
"Especially since it\u2019s coming from an organization (@EcoHealthNYC) that hasn\u2019t bought into open data (e.g., Bombali & Liberia Ebola come to mind)"https://t.co/a9HpXzTJTQ https://t.co/GxMraPBAIb
I noticed Kristian Andersen upped the stakes by making a veiled allusion to Bombali Ebola Virus, alleging that EcoHealth had failed to upload its sequence, but did not reveal the motives. However, we do know why.
Ecohealth supplies deadly viruses to DOD!

Sydney University gets an estimated $534 million a year from selling bogus degrees to Chinese students, which amounts to 23% of total university revenue. That figure doesn't include grants from China for various think tanks or joint-projects.
Whistle-blower, Prof Babones says:

Mr. Patrick, one of the chief scientists at the Army Biological Warfare Laboratories at Fort Detrick in Frederick, Md., held five classified US patents for the process of weaponizing anthrax.
2/x
Under Mr. Patrick’s direction, scientists at Fort Detrick developed a tularemia agent that, if disseminated by airplane, could cause casualties & sickness over 1000s mi². In a 10,000 mi² range, it had 90% casualty rate & 50% fatality rate
3/x His team explored Q fever, plague, & Venezuelan equine encephalitis, testing more than 20 anthrax strains to discern most lethal variety. Fort Detrick scientists used aerosol spray systems inside fountain pens, walking sticks, light bulbs, & even in 1953 Mercury exhaust pipes
4/x After retiring in 1986, Mr. Patrick remained one of the world’s foremost specialists on biological warfare & was a consultant to the CIA, FBI, & US military. He debriefed Soviet defector Ken Alibek, the deputy chief of the Soviet biowarfare program

In 1949 the Army created a small team of chemists at "Camp Detrick" called Special Operations Division. Its assignment was to find military uses for toxic bacteria. The coercive use of toxins was a new field, which fascinated Allen Dulles, later head of the CIA

As someone\u2019s who\u2019s read the book, this review strikes me as tremendously unfair. It mostly faults Adler for not writing the book the reviewer wishes he had! https://t.co/pqpt5Ziivj
— Teresa M. Bejan (@tmbejan) January 12, 2021
The meat of the criticism is that the history Adler gives is insufficiently critical. Adler describes a few figures who had a great influence on how the modern US university was formed. It's certainly critical: it focuses on the social Darwinism of these figures. 2/x
Other insinuations and suggestions in the review seem wildly off the mark, distorted, or inappropriate-- for example, that the book is clickbaity (it is scholarly) or conservative (hardly) or connected to the events at the Capitol (give me a break). 3/x
The core question: in what sense is classics inherently racist? Classics is old. On Adler's account, it begins in ancient Rome and is revived in the Renaissance. Slavery (Christiansen's primary concern) is also very old. Let's say classics is an education for slaveowners. 4/x
It's worth remembering that literacy itself is elite throughout most of this history. Literacy is, then, also the education of slaveowners. We can honor oral and musical traditions without denying that literacy is, generally, good. 5/x
