      5/Z So an out-of-frame mutation resulting from copy-choice error, easily explains how one ends up with 2 CGG codons without a lab. That's been known since at least May *2020.* Hence why I said the conspiracists learn nothing. 🤦‍♂️ https://twitter.com/AtomsksSanakan/status/1397325000223477762 … https://virological.org/t/tackling-rumors-of-a-suspicious-origin-of-ncov2019/384/4 …pic.twitter.com/NsxXsJLf72

      6/Z It's also silly when Quay + Muller say "CGG" is a hallmark of genetic manipulation. As an immunologist I know it's actually a fairly common sequence often recognized by the immune system and used to clear pathogens. https://twitter.com/AtomsksSanakan/status/891040491214688257 … https://archive.is/ZFIHa pic.twitter.com/SaBApmG51q

      7/Z Quay + Muller suggest that "the double CGG is suppressed naturally": https://archive.is/MfmLd#selection-4243.9-4243.47 … Actually, SARS-CoV-2 kept it in nature. That's not surprising, since it can evade (and likely often disrupt) the immune system. https://twitter.com/AtomsksSanakan/status/1396871958504120325 … https://archive.is/ZFIHa#selection-8095.0-9165.276 …pic.twitter.com/3CHQUJ2GTT

      8/Z Out-of-frame introduction of two CGG codons is 1 of many ways in which SARS-CoV-2 looks like a virus that evolved haphazardly in the natural world, as opposed to being intelligently designed by humans https://www.microbe.tv/twiv/twiv-762/  https://twitter.com/AtomsksSanakan/status/1397017087726473217 … https://virological.org/t/tackling-rumors-of-a-suspicious-origin-of-ncov2019/384 …pic.twitter.com/4xbXkSq55u

      9/Z This is why copy-choice error (along with codon usage and SARS-CoV-2's furin cleavage site) is 1 of my litmus tests for SARS-CoV-2 lab conspiracists: If they still screw up on it after May 2020, then they're not credible. 🤷‍♂️ https://twitter.com/Potholer54T/status/1261591532177698816 … https://youtube.com/watch?v=T-A_OPWa5VI&lc=UgxGvr7HLXRUu0G-p6F4AaABAg.9NPw-iSaUcI9NWra0kVkz6 …pic.twitter.com/ONdp7KKLF8

      10/Z Besides: - Nicholas Wade - Steven Quay - Richard Muller - Bret Weinstein - Heather Heying etc., Richard Ebright also peddled the debunked codon talking point. Yet even Alina Chan knew better. https://twitter.com/AtomsksSanakan/status/1394438888358391808 … https://twitter.com/Ayjchan/status/1356977607523389447 … https://archive.is/ZFIHa#selection-10575.0-10750.2 …pic.twitter.com/jscG6sq6Mw

      11/Z Evidence won't persuade most SARS-CoV-2 lab conspiracists, anymore than evidence would persuade most HIV conspiracists that HIV evolved naturally from SIV and spread outside of a lab, as opposed to having escaped from scientists' research. https://www.tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.1080/22221751.2020.1727299 …pic.twitter.com/gZ7YcVM5xW

      12/Z For non-expert conspiracists, it's not about evidence, but instead ideology, etc. https://twitter.com/AtomsksSanakan/status/1277071404463251457 … "Pew Research Center survey conducted in March 2020 found that 29% of Americans believed that SARS-CoV-2 was developed intentionally in a lab" https://link.springer.com/content/pdf/10.1007/s10461-020-02925-y.pdf …pic.twitter.com/ePR25uid6j

      13/Z Even the scientist Nicholas Wade cited to justify his conspiracism on the furin cleavage site / codon usage, walked his statements back. Do better next time, David Baltimore. Don't be another Kary Mullis with Nobel disease. https://twitter.com/amymaxmen/status/1401924060712296450 … https://www.theguardian.com/world/2021/jun/09/leading-biologist-dampens-his-smoking-gun-covid-lab-leak-theory …pic.twitter.com/EPwW9KOVz2

          Re: "LMFAO calling on corporate Kappo" You misunderstand, McCairn; @gorskon is citing me. I'm not interested in the deluded conspiracy theories u form in your mind to cover for u not grasping virology, denialist. You're on par with HIV conspiracists. https://journals.plos.org/plosmedicine/article?id=10.1371/journal.pmed.0040256 …pic.twitter.com/4lrff3JxdU

          Re: "In addition to being selective, their logic is also internally inconsistent" ^^^ True words, from @aetiology. The conspiracy theories + supposed COIs (conflict of interest) made up by lab leak proponents apply as much, or more, to those they defend https://twitter.com/StephanEducTech/status/1403436245745815571 …pic.twitter.com/GxHFO9tDMB
