Very intriguing. Thank you. The new info of UMN is striking too. At first I thought Duke is the connection but there’s another angle.

Baric described that joint UMN research in this 2015 TWiV interview:

Fang Li has access to Shi's Chinese bat cells for Baric's furin cleavage site research:

Both "missed" the FCS in this early 2020 Covid paper:

The piece is outstanding, as expected. Anything written by Jim Haslam on SARS CoV-2 is exceptional.

Baric's Defusebid stands out as the most significant element. Baric should have admitted, a long time ago, that his intention was to make a self-spreading vaccine and not trigger a pandemic that could be misused as hell and greatly exploited detrimentally.

Thank You, Jim - Baric is a snake, and loves to invert the meaning of words when he has to explain himself. IMO, he has been the "squirrel with the coronavirus choir boy" for Big Pharma and the investors in vaccines. He should be banned from any gain of funciton work. He is a pathological liar. Have you seen the interviews with Dr. David E Martin? Baric is the creator of the patent for the "replication defective chimeric cv". I think the patent itself is false. SQUIRRELS - aka QUACKS, and evil at that.

Baric even patented the SARS2 genome back in 2018

brilliant piece Stan, you're a radical centrist bringing too much reason & logic to an emotional debate.
