Subject: Re: Teleconference
Kristen and Eddie have shared this and will talk through it on the call. Thank you.
Hope it will help frame the discussions.
(There was a lot of sharing/cheering of this Jan 31 Jon Cohen Science article which features Dasak, sets template for the conspiracy theorist vilification campaign - or was it the Prox O draft itself?)

Agenda

(Prox O draft was completed that day - two of its authors are presenting. We can assume they presented their draft. Yesterday, literally, the authors confirmed it looks engineered. But we can’t have that - so - here’s the pangolin water-muddier plan?
The next steps and desired outcomes were redacted. Reminds you that although we see this as an exciting mystery investigation - it's not a mystery for some people - it's a lived-experience. Luckily, Farrar provides a list of those real-life livers:)
