2. Was the motive of http://Virological.org"> http://Virological.org âs rush release due to competition to get the first releaser credit for the sars-cov-2 genome?
3. @GISAID claims & #39;the access credentials of some of the persons listed as authors of Wuhan-hu-1 were among the access credentials used on January 10, 2020 to access the first genomes available on GISAID& #39;
4. @GISAID formally wrote to the authors who acknowledged Virological,orgâs post as the world& #39;s first release of the SARS-COV-2 genome, and penalised the authors of MN908947
5. but @GISAID didn& #39;t identify who exactly from Fudan University or University of Sydney ACCESSED and KNEW about IVDC& #39;s & #39;initial& #39; submission of IVDC-01/05 on GISAID on 10th Jan, 2020, via login records of their GISAID account credentials.
6. A complex topic and timeline explained here: https://twitter.com/coroldo1/status/1366643799926087683">https://twitter.com/coroldo1/...

9. In the presentation, was Edward Holmes referring to the 3rd January gag order?
Similar to the one communicated to WIV by China CDC via a phone call on january 1st? and China NHC?

10. Professor Holmes mentioned the gag order to paint Professor Zhang Yongzhen as a rebellious hero.
"But China CDC was in fact the force pushing that gag order, to intimidate hospitals, universities & Labs"

11. ICDC vs IVDC
"For outsiders, yes, but inside the Chinese CDC, the gag order was a protection for their dominance, the only conflict here was the twisted power play between ICDC and IVDC"

12. Edward Holmes refers to the âkey memberâ
Did he mean Xu Jianguo?
Xu Jianguo was Professor Yong-zhen Zhang& #39;s direct boss at ICDC, China, and the leader of the joint task force for pathogen identification in Wuhan.

13. Xu Jianguo organised the blind test kit trial which led to authorisation of the three basically useless early test kits, which gave false negatives and contributed to the death of many Wuhan citizens. https://twitter.com/BillyBostickson/status/1367915082798092289">https://twitter.com/BillyBost...

16. The Genome Publication Delay
The Chinese government finally made its genomes public on Jan. 12, a day after another team published one without authorization. That opened the door for more companies to make their own test kits. https://twitter.com/BillyBostickson/status/1359030322290020352">https://twitter.com/BillyBost...

17. Releasing the Genome
1. Yong-Zhen Zhang& #39;s team submitted the genome to Genbank on 05/01/2020, setting an embargo date for July 2020
2. They had no intention to release it immediately as the purpose was to get an accession number for Nature submission! https://twitter.com/BillyBostickson/status/1359067363983859714">https://twitter.com/BillyBost...

18. Our "hero" and Eddie& #39;s friend, Professor Yong-Zhen Zhang released the genome only AFTER he finished negotiating a secret validation which secured exclusive rights for three Shanghai testing kit companies. https://twitter.com/BillyBostickson/status/1359067654552653827">https://twitter.com/BillyBost...
19. Coincidences and Corruption
It turns out that all the CCDC affiliated researchers listed as authors on the first SARS-COV-2 genomes submitted to @GISAID on the 12th January, had interests in companies able to profit from the pandemic. https://twitter.com/BillyBostickson/status/1359068258486263811">https://twitter.com/BillyBost...

21. Negotiations?
Both the http://Virological.org"> http://Virological.org release and the GISAID release were preceded by negotiations.
1. In the http://virological.org"> http://virological.org release, Eddie Holmes negotiated with Professor Zhang Yongzhen
2. In the GISAID case, GISAID negotiated with China CDC.

22. This is not the plausible methodology for emerging outbreaks as this pandemic proved to us time is of the essence during the early response.
Negotiations allow backdoor agendas and quid-pro-quo and covering of tracks, right, Eddie?

23. Did @edwardcholmes the "virus spotter" not spot this when he worked so closely with these CCDC researchers?
His excuse: China Politics?
You& #39;re twistin& #39; my melon man!

24. In other news...
GISAID later went on a narrative manipulation campaign using its strong position to help IVDC to & #39;reclaim& #39; the first & #39;public release& #39; trophy.
So they forward logged the GISAID actual public release time!

25. As for the talk about possible funding loss for poor "rectified" Professor Zhang, how much more funding can this & #39;first release& #39; generate in the future?
He had a top PR company help his image in 2020, so we no need to worry too much about his funding.. https://twitter.com/BillyBostickson/status/1359035635726655488">https://twitter.com/BillyBost...
