Nice overview of the role the Pasteur Institute played in building the WIV BSL4 lab. Pasteur, of course, also found the closest SARS2 progenitor (BANAL-52) in 2020 in Laos not far from their previous 2017 sampling trip (sponsored by the US Navy and DoD).

“Life In West America” is also a time capsule collection, capturing a particular fleeting moment in time with generative models.
After a human artist learns to draw a hand with five fingers "correctly", it becomes hard to draw anything fundamentally else...

The scars that have been left on us by the response to COVID are varied and deep. Underneath the awful statistics lie billions of individual human stories, which are only now beginning to surface. These stories can help us process what we experienced.

Not long from now, maybe 5 or 10 years, when covid is widely seen as a bad cold thanks to widespread population immunity, people are going to look back and wonder at the panicked overreaction. They will say, why didn't they just protect the vulnerable and get on with life?

I love it when lab leak opponents learn actual facts of the case and think I am making them up 🤯
Like that if you insert an FCS into a BANAL-52-like progenitor you get SARS2. Or that no infected animal or even a positive animal sample was found in Huanan market—only human ones.

OF COURSE I fully trust that the Covid vaccines have no down sides! Vaccines come from the same expert science apparatus that gave us the amazing face mask technology and the genius lockdown "let's simply freeze the economy" invention that any time now will save someone.

The Armed Conflict Location & Event Data Project () recently published its Global Disorder in 2022 Report.
In 2022, political violence in the world grew by 27%, or nearly 27,000 events, compared to 2021. Here is a quick rundown of the report's findings on #Syria🇸🇾.

A further thought on these CCP balloons making their way across the country: A private company should send up its own maneuvering balloons & harass them, bump them, & shoot potato guns & flame throwers at them, & sell the resulting videos - sort of a battlebots w balloons!

modeling them in silico wrt human ACE receptor, then testing the more interesting spikes in vitro and in vivo.
We know EcoHealth and WIV sampled Laotian viruses, so it is not "vanishingly implausible" to think they came across a CoV with a BANAL-52/SARS2-like spike which

I disagree. The relevant part of the DARPA proposal was what EcoHealth and WIV have already been doing for years -- hunting for SARS-like CoVs from all over SE Asia, sending samples to WIV, having WIV sequence them and assess their spikes for "human emergence potential" by twitter.com/stuartjdneil/s

Today you can create a fully synthetic clone of a CoV in a matter of weeks. You could incorporate any genomic changes you wish, and if you use type IIs enzymes, their sites would disappear upon ligation and the genome would have no signs of manipulation.
