1638294521476784128 | @antonioregalado @emilyakopp @BioTurboNick Post me a screenshot please, I cannot find this statement in the preprint. If this is correct, the study by Gao et al. was submitted to Nature and is currently under review. The raw data was probably sent to GISAID in the review process. Using this data is scientific fraud, IMO. https://t.co/yHRhKymMzq | 1 |
1638203764321517574 | @antonioregalado Yes, that’s *all* those mtDNA data demonstrate — that those species were present in the market AT SOME POINT. And yes, a virus circulating in other species should exhibit some species-specific adaptations (as the mink farm SARS2 evolution shows) but only canonical human SARS2… https://t.co/B1FKIQ85Zp | 1 |
1638282206241083406 | @antonioregalado @emilyakopp @BioTurboNick Gao's study was in review for about a year and reviewers might have requested them to deposit the data in GISAID prior to publication (probably soon). This might have resulted in a case of serious scientific fraud. Does the preprint suggest that it originated outside of China? 🤔 | 1 |

1638182259416084484 | @antonioregalado Actually, it doesn’t, as the authors themselves concede: https://t.co/4u8uMV4PV5 | 1 |

1638192060766343168 | @antonioregalado Traces of raccoon dog mtDNA found where raccoon dogs were sold are no more suggestive that raccoon dogs were the source of the virus than traces of cat and dog mtDNA found in those samples being suggestive that cats or dogs were the source of the virus. | 1 |
1638190783391236099 | The @MakePeople_Film was honored to participate in the #labmecrazy #film #festival. We hope to go again soon! It was amazing. Thanks @labmecrazy Check our this video that features our film subject @antonioregalado https://t.co/WJ3mgdhBEZ | 1 |
1638433593142943744 | @antonioregalado "...suggests there were infected animals in the market." 🤦♂️🤦♂️ It suggests no such thing. Since argument by authority is the only thing that sci-comm writers seem to understand, please have a look at this thread. https://t.co/24z7tNRPc9 | 1 |

1636853154506735616 | @antonioregalado @TheAtlantic Angela likely seeded the story into the press via Pace PR and their usual contacts, as she spins the data into something it isn't. AR says “This is a really strong indication that animals at the market were infected. There’s really no other explanation that makes any sense.” | 4 |
1639650821800353794 | Hello @realalecberg we NEED a sequel to your excellent @HBO show "Silicon Valley"! Call it, say, "Silicon Valley: The Bank."
