Illustrations of the amount of “coincidences” that definitely point to a lab scenario

Following on @CNN‘s poor coverage of the debate around COVID-19’s origins, @npwcnn also fails to do justice to the amount of “coincidences” that definitely point to a lab scenario. Illustrated thread.

SARS-CoV-2′s claimed natural origin is undermined by issues with genome sequences of its relative strains

Coronavirus sequences RaTG13, MP789 and RmYN02 raise multiple questions to be critically addressed by the scientific community

Oder war es vielleicht doch ein Laborunfall? Das Rätsel um den Ausbruch der Corona-Pandemie

Ein Virus treibt die Welt vor sich her. Ist es tatsächlich auf natürlichem Weg übertragen worden? Oder etwa doch aus einem Hochsicherheitslabor in Wuhan entwichen? Die drängende Frage nach dem Ursprung der Pandemie wird durch den Machtkampf zwischen den USA und China massiv erschwert.

In-silico molecular overclocking of RaTG13

[Thread] In-silico molecular overclocking of RaTG13.TLDR: 191-nt RdRp segments of SARS-CoV-2, RaTG13 and Ra7896 show an unexpected molecular clock behavior. In-silico synonym mutations is one probable explanation.
