Niels Bohr wrote, "Your theory is crazy, but not crazy enough to be true..." Jim Haslam has effective disproved Professor Bohr in his Substack and book outlining his theory for the origin of COVID-19. I have challenged every aspect of Jim's theory--including in an 3-hour interview--and I cannot falsify his theory. Best open-sourced collection on COVID-19 origins in one place. In my opinion, this is the working theory for the origin of COVID-19 until we get Munster's, Baric's, Dani Andersen's, Zhengli Shi's, and Linfa Wang's lab notebooks. Great work, Jim.
"Until then, I consider the origins of SARS-CoV-2 to be solved."
I agree, but I don't have to wait for any expert to provide evidence.
To me as a clinician, it makes perfect sense.
Baric constructs the new virus that is transported to Munster, who makes it airborne and capable of infecting only 5 animals that are corralled in the Rocky Mountain Lab; subsequently, the virus/vaccine (self-spreading) jets to a BSL4 lab in Wuhan to be tested in Chinese horseshoe bats. This is where the leak occurred.
RFK Jr may not be enthralled with your book because he also wrote a book about a lab leak, but he completely overlooked the geographical location of the virus/vaccine's origin and the science involved.
Importantly, the avian flu H5N1 virus was made airborne in Erasmus University, Rotterdam, more than a decade ago; Munster trained there.
Everyone conflated lab leak with lab origin. RML had so many samples and bats being shipped to Montana that the purchaser called a timeout on all the emails.
Probably, but they won't cooperate if we demand jail time. Munster needs to publish the unpublished (WA1) transmission data and hand over his 2019 lab book. Baric's hiding behind UNC lawyers, everyone else is out of the loop or on foreign soil.
Establishing a conviction necessitates clear evidence, some of which could have dissipated for reasons that might be comprehensible. As such, it’s conceivable that these individuals may avoid prosecution for an indeterminate period.
The ancestral strain (WA1) can "prove" that Munster aerosolized the agent. But he will start hiding behind lawyers like Baric. He called the 2018 SARS2 genome "HKU3r-CoVs" or HKU3-Smix

Do scientists forget about what they worked on years ago?

Hopefully, RFK Jr.'s hatred of Fauci will override his own book (ghostwritten by others), and he will confront RML as head of HHS.
interesting confirmation by Dutch insiders...
By the way, this Dutch team is famous - world leader ? - for its GoF research on bird flue.
They deserve jail, don't they ?

I know, so send this to him, since he ignores this story.
I shall.
