You had me worried there for a minute as i thought you had been feasting on pangolins in Vietnam!

interestingly the 2019 Guangdong pangolins were actually smuggled into China from Vietnam & I think the 2017 Guangxi ones as well, as some emails revealed, see:

I had first-hand encounter with confiscated pangolins at a rescue center run by Save Vietnam’s Wildlife (svw.vn)

One pangolin had to have its left hind leg amputated due to an injury caused by a snare

It was a privilege to take part in a feeding session and witness the animals in action

I recently published a lengthy report on pangolin coronaviruses, and although I'm sure you will disagree with some of the claims and conclusions, you may find sections, 6, 7, 8 on pangolin smuggling & use of pangolins in TCM and for food & wine, interesting:

i know the feeling about over researching & book delays ;)

Despite our differences of opinion on lab leak issues:

I admire your bravery in revealing your concerns

I fully support you in the face of vicious academic mobbing, which I too have experienced.

Long live heresy!

I felt I had to set the record straight.

Did I not have reservations about speaking out?

Of course, I did. I was terrified.

I gave careful thought to the consequences of speaking out, such as facing the kind of bully and smears👇

Here’s the backstory behind the making of Blame in response to @angierasmussen.bsky.social

During shooting in Thailand,I was shocked by Daszak’s fast & loose with facts, his refusal to acknowledge his conflict of interest,& his denial of his gain-of-function res in collaboration with Wuhan lab

By framing the covid origins controversy as a left-right issue, labelling all lab-leak
supporters as conspiracy theorists, & failing to scrutinise the conduct of scientists, Blame misses the mark by a wide margin—risking further polarisation of the debate & deepening public distrust in science

Lastly, I have had tip offs from my intel contacts in the USA that my conclusions will be supported by published intel later this year.
