@Riley: after my exit of the JW, I did ascend the ranks in academia. Please read the paper:
Omicron differs from the prototype SARS-CoV-2 isolate, Wuhan-Hu-1, by 59 amino acids; 37 of 66 these changes are in the S protein, raising the possibility that S is at the heart of Omicron’s 67 pathogenic and antigenic behavior.
They basically tacitly admit this ancestor isolate (Wuhan-Hu-1) GenBank Host: Homo sapiens Collection Date: 2019-12 Isolation Country: China Organism: Severe acute respiratory syndrome-related coronavirus is the original species and said isolate is the basis for their research.
That sentence alone debunks the 2 years of gaslighting by NIH/WHO and the media as to the origin of the virus. Not only that, but this is evidence that gain of function research is continuing despite their claims to the contrary, something I personally said on this board I myself was involved in a few months after the pandemic started.
