Of the two papers that fooled the world, the most important one was:
Proximal Origin of SARS-CoV-2.
Aka the Pangolin Paper.
It supplied the science basis for engineering the world-view of Covid’s origin.
The BBC described it as the definitive paper ruling out the possibility of a lab leak.
Pub: Mar 17, 2020 by Nature (draft completed Feb 1 - the date of the teleconference - where it was presented by Farrar/Andersen/Holmes - supplied the backbone for discussions)

Purpose written to quell speculation of a lab-exit. As lead-author Kristian Andersen put it:
If one of the main purposes of this document is to counter those fringe theories, I think it’s very important that we do so strongly and in plain language.
Which they did. Let's take a look at that language ...
The premise:
Horseshoe bats, possibly carrying RaTG13, (Mojiang cave incident, Yunnan*) managed to infect a population of at least 21 caged Malayan pangolin such as those smuggled into Guangdong (1000 km away). (*dismissed by WIV/EHA as a coronavirus incident)
Lipkin, Feb 10, 2020: The latest data suggest that an endangered mammal, the pangolin, may be the source of the new coronavirus. My colleagues and I have been working to shut down wildlife markets for decades. Perhaps the silver lining in this outbreak is that we finally get the traction needed to achieve this goal.
The non-shiny lining of course being millions of deaths - the evaporation of human freedoms.
The said pangolin were then transported to the Huanan Seafood Wholesale Market in Wuhan (1000 km another away), where they were slaughtered for sale.
Before their death, the bat virus is theorized by the authors to have pulled off an average of 50 years (according to Holmes - 20 years if you’re in a rush) of profound evolutionary change - where only that exact alignment in time of freak changes will work. In the caged pangolin environment, it aced the ACE-2 spike protein barrier to human infectivity - resulting in patient zero at the market - as many early cases of COVID-19 were linked to the Huanan (Seafood) market in Wuhan - then:
The Conclusion:
As such: Our analyses clearly show that SARS-CoV-2 is not a laboratory construct or a purposefully manipulated virus. .. (P)angolins...provide a much stronger and more parsimonious explanation of how the virus originated through natural selection.
Yeah, right.
Despite it being known at the time (!) that:
There’s your pangolin premise - collapsed in a heap - before it gets out of the starting gates.
Pile on all the fancy science you like after that - it’s a moot point when the premise is:
- wrong -
sorry to say.
Remember, this is not benefit-of-hindsight. The authors, of course, knew it was a whopper as they wrote it - that's why they wrote it - but how did it go from there to:
All of the above chose to ignore glaring errors in the fundamental details of the paper. Why?
To perpetrate the greatest scientific fraud of all time.
That makes them hands-on complicit in the Covid Atrocity.
