1640468434139123712 | @forbeshealth It is a matter of public record that the first known Marburg virus outbreaks occurred as laboratory accidents. The Marburg infections in Germany and Yugoslavia in 1967 are undisputed examples of laboratory accidents. As are the Marburg infections in the USSR in 1988 and 1990. https://t.co/MZJBUAPV1P | 24 |
1640487645607329799 | Apparently @forbeshealth is now publishing articles about my tweets. Have to say, I didn’t see that one coming (especially since @bruce_y_lee never reached out to me about this). https://t.co/H9hrWo5WMK | 17 |
1640492664297488394 | This is the correct context for my “lab leak” tweet about the 1967 Marburg virus outbreak. It would have been nice if @bruce_y_lee had mentioned this in his @forbeshealth article, which instead grossly misrepresents what I said. I would have told him this if he had contacted me. https://t.co/jBkbHaMnul | 16 |
1640467161708896256 | 18 million people are dead from a coronavirus that most likely leaked from a lab and THIS is what @forbeshealth thinks we need to discuss? Semantics over a 1967 biosafety failure? https://t.co/8m9JuZ8Q5a | 10 |
1640489864704532480 | Dear @forbeshealth & @bruce_y_lee, This middle-school style bully letter is seriously unfit to print. I would like to join the chorus of concerned scientists requesting it’s retraction. @jbkinney tweeted a relevant fact. The gang up on him is immature and uncalled for. Disgusting https://t.co/jpBAMj4rVS | 7 |
1640501144878465024 | @jbkinney @forbeshealth @bruce_y_lee Your calling Marburg lab leak was appropriate, contrary to the tone of this article. @bruce_y_lee you may want to read the IC report which groups all lab-associated activities together, as that's how most people, including @POTUS who ordered it, sees it. https://t.co/gKRtJ6ikWV https://t.co/cg6sUdiq6Z | 7 |
1640467781815795713 | @forbeshealth @forbeshealth this is a despicable article that diminishes @Forbes as a source for informative news. Dr. Kinney was and still is right. Marburg leaked from a lab, so its 1967 outbreak was a lab leak, even if the lab wasn't studying that virus specifically. | 5 |
1640489839500877824 | @forbeshealth You're confused. This began with a different researcher trying bizarrely to use (current) Marburg as a reason to dismiss covid lab leak. Experts including Justin pushed back, and noted the irony of using Marburg for this especially, since 1967 Marburg itself *was* a lab leak... | 4 |
1638607884664578069 | Over 20 million Americans have dry eye. Academy spokesperson Arvind Saini, MD, tells @forbeshealth what you need to know: https://t.co/JN6LEADZaV #dryeye #dryeyetreatment #eyedrops #treatment #medicine #eyehealth #healthtips | 4 |
1640469645789413377 | @forbeshealth Truly appalling. CDC itself calls it a lab accident, some of the quoted people made plainly moronic statements, e.g. Eckerle, but no mention of that. One sided tweet collection. I'm amazed this could get past an editor and a rudimentary fact check. Then again, maybe it didn't. | 3 |

1640469458941796353 | @forbeshealth This is why trust in the media is in the toilet. It is a matter of historical record. Please stop spreading disinformation. | 50 |
