Discussion of education system seems more relevant to HN than a clickbait politics article with a headline that he didn't actually say (or at least, they didn't put that quote in the article).

Nope, but you're doing a nice job illustrating the point I made in my very first post in this thread.

No, they're two very different things, because one involves an adaptation. Once adapted, the rules of the game for cross-species transmission events are completely different. Or do you maintain that a combination cross-species transmis

So, some science done by some scientists. Very different that "science bashing" which implies all science done by all scientists.

I read the review. There are many cases of this: > It's more like getting rabies from a raccoon. And only 3 potential cases of this: > It's possible that the original SARS jumped 3 times total, based on the genetic evidence

Yes, I'm well aware of this, but it's not really applicable to the point I'm making, because those pre-dated laboratories.

You're mixing up animal > human transmission, and zoonotic events. They are not equivalent. Human SARS spike protein RBD could bind palm civet ACE2, but not vice versa. Palm civets (and other animals) could act as reservoirs for hum

Because I didn't catch the edit: >Your hypothesis seems to be that it spread from lab distantly because of incubation time, then stopped spreading distantly once it reached the market? That does not make sense. It's not my hypo

Science bashing? As in he's bashing the scientific method? Or what is this (noun, proper) "science" you speak of?

I'm being very precise to avoid conflating lab leak and natural origin. There is a possibility those are the same thing. The virus could have been discovered in nature, brought to a lab, and leaked. I personally find this whole debate

The disease is frontotemporal dementia (FTD). Genetic FTD is caused by mutations in genes C9ORF72, MAPT, or GRN. These can be inherited, and are dominant.

I reckon most of those people would prefer to have been born. So from an objectivist, population average view, perhaps not equivalent to a life saved. But to any individual, it seems to equate to their life being saved.
