[Thread of threads] #originsofSARSCoV2 #DRASTIC Compilation of relevant findings. Live thread. Let's start with the Addendum and the 7896 clade recently confirmed to come from the Mojiang mineshaft x.com/franciscodeasis/status…

CIA whistleblower’s written testimony just dropped. It’s worth reading in full but here is the short version: By March 2021, before Biden’s 90-day COVID-origin review, FBI and DOE were already leaning towards lab origin. CIA analysts were leaning the same way, but CIA management didn’t like where the evidence was pointing and were actively obstructing their own people. Then, once the 90-day review kicked off in May 2021, Fauci personally fed the interagency team a curated list of experts. The same ones who wrote “Proximal Origin,” along with others, all part of the same ecosystem shaped by the same overlapping incentives. Basically, the same people involved in funding, defending, or advising on risky virological research were now tasked with assessing and informing official analyses on whether that research caused the pandemic. And then towards the end of the 90-day review period, someone at the CIA management flipped the agency’s assessment from lab-origin to non-consensus. Between 2022-2023, the bureaucratic ecosystem at CIA was stil working overtime to block its own analysts and technical experts. Internal emails even admitted analysts would have called a lab origin if management had let them. Not just that, the analysts who pushed back saw their careers wrecked. And those who buried it got promoted. All this comes from a career intelligence officer on Gabbard's DIG task force, the group literally tasked with declassifying COVID origins. His position gave him direct access to the documents and communications they were trying to hide. So why was the lab-leak conclusion resisted, delayed, and obscured for years? Groupthink. Political pressure. Fear of anything geopolitically inconvenient about China. Reluctance to implicate a research infrastructure funded for decades with American taxpayer money. Motives would be hard to prove, but the result was a textbook cover-up, intentional or otherwise. The real question now is whether Congress, DOJ and the powers that be will follow this wherever it leads.

Si et al. (2024) Fig 3: the SARSr 7896-clade shows no HKU2 co-infections. But the same group previously published two HKU2 sequences (MN312322, MN312339) from this very clade. Their own data, quietly disappeared. sciencedirect.com/science/ar…

Don't miss @mattwridley give the inaugural lecture in @nih's Scientific Freedom lecture series. He will be speaking on March 20th about the origins of covid. Registration to watch is free at the link! videocast.nih.gov/watch/2444…

Six years ago today, a truly shocking incident occurred that disgraces the name of science. A dozen scientists shared the view that Covid started with a laboratory experiment. So they met online to discuss how to mislead the world into thinking the opposite.

No aborda la cuestión planteada: soldadura entre viejo y nuevo con presumibles calidades y propiedades diferentes. Es saber popular desde hace más de 2 milenios que hay que tener mucho cuidado: "... porque lo nuevo tira de lo viejo y la rotura se hace más grande" (Mt 9, 17)

Adamuz – tentative timeline (focus on assistance to the Alvia): 19:43 Impact. 19:45 1st call from Iryo driver. Shortly after: 2nd Iryo call 1st call from Alvia train attendant (head wound). 19:45–20:15 Probable passenger calls to 112 from both trains. Likely triangulation confusion (two locations only ~570 m apart). ADIF cannot locate Alvia on screen nor reach its driver. ~20:00 1st ADIF–112 contact. 20:00 2nd 112 to ADIF call: ADIF reports one train at Adamuz [Iryo] and “another one with injured passengers” [Alvia]. 20:13 ADIF tweet reporting Alvia derailment. ~20:25–20:35 1st physical alert: a passenger from Alvia [Galán] walks to the Iryo and tells GC “there is another train”, apparently causing surprise. ~20:35 First GC units arrive from the north (Iryo area). ~20:40 AVLO search party (driver Miguel 1) reaches Alvia from the south after walking ~3 km. 20:45–20:50 First small group of medics [Marta] firefighters reach Alvia on foot (~570 m). 20:50–21:10 Quad arrives, fence broken, sole improvised shuttle of medics and injured. >21:10 Gradual arrival of vehicles and full emergency deployment (some witnesses report ~2h for full response). Inconsistencies: Official claims that GC visually located the Alvia at ~20:15 conflict with multiple testimonies suggesting the Alvia remained effectively “invisible” until ~20:40–20:50.

There is an opportunity here to set an international precedent for sharing the genomic sequence of an outbreak pathogen ASAP. The 1st carcass was found on Nov 25 a few hundred meters from a lab working with ASF. It's been a month. The genomic sequence is still unpublished.

Brote PPA: Ya es tomadura de pelo. Siguen sin publicar las secuencias ni decir el porcentaje de coincidencia. "Solo la comparación exhaustiva del ADN de los virus de dentro y de fuera del laboratorio, que **todavía no ha terminado**, aclarará el origen del patógeno."

Descontrol en los laboratorios: cientos de accidentes exponen el riesgo catastrófico de fuga de patógenos peligrosos. "No son más que la punta del iceberg de los que realmente ocurren", alertó @XavierAbadMdG, ahora en el foco por la peste porcina africana elpais.com/ciencia/2025-12-1…

Los @mossos y la @guardiacivil han ido a por muestras de los virus con los que trabaja el CReSA para ver si coincide con el de los jabalís infectados de peste porcina africana. Las muestras las recogen los especialistas de los Tedax. También solicitan documentos y clonan dispositivos elpais.com/espana/catalunya/…

Siguen sin publicar ningún metagenoma ni secuencia. Es una falta de transparencia injustificable habiendo tanto en juego. Ha hecho bien en intervenir la Justicia.
