Really—why is Daszak bringing up pangolins here at all? Even this serendipitously discovered paper points out their absence. Leave the pangolins alone.pic.twitter.com/uxyIPzhlv1

For my money, this is the best part of the paper. "Hello, fellow merchant. I am an independent observer unconnected with law enforcement. Please provide me with a list of the illegal animals you are selling (and your written consent!) so that I may publish it in two years' time."pic.twitter.com/HLRWsIGWOY
Daszak blocked me immediately, so let me screenshot what I was replying to here.pic.twitter.com/SMxvI7nvCt

Useful context thread from @BeijingPalmer. This very natural reflex to obfuscate is why I find Daszak's aggressive defensiveness more interesting than the sudden appearance of the Chinese researchhttps://twitter.com/BeijingPalmer/status/1401934598574067713 …

So Daszak was instrumental in an earlier effort to shut down inquiry about Covid origins. No wonder the guy instablocks:https://twitter.com/alexandrosM/status/1401813071635501056 …

pic.twitter.com/XTyTB3CeyDTo be clear about where I stand: I think it's possible to be genuinely in the dark about how the pandemic started, absent further evidence, and also find these efforts to pre-empt investigation fishy as hell.
I miss the early days of the pandemic, when I could have full faith in the WHO, CDC, Nature, and the Lancet instead of having to feel like a foil-hatted wingnut who has to assemble the real story from random tweetspic.twitter.com/6waAYfDdlO

More Daszak-adjacent fishiness here. Again, whatever weird thing is going on here does't prove or disprove any covid origin hypothesis. But it's really weird just as a standalone phenomenon. What's with all the dissembling?https://twitter.com/ontweeterdotcom/status/1403772241981083648 …

There's a long video of these two sitting side by side on stage at the event so it's not a question of memory. I suppose the next step is Maxmen can claim her account got hacked when she denied knowing the guy.
Basically there's been an orchestrated effort to attack the lab leak line of inquiry, where the participants have been pretty eager to hide that they're working together. And none of this is happening in China, so we don't have to pearl-clutch about whether to investigate it
Why can't we just have an ordinary pandemic where the world races to find a cure and then take it when it's found, and there's not 19 layers of stupid at every step of the process

Yet another twist in the Daszak story. He has been one of the people most active in attacking lab escape scenarios, and gone to some lengths to disguise those efforts. https://twitter.com/niubi/status/1407318970894589952 …
