Virologist, comparative virus/host interactions of HIV, Flu, Ebola and SARS CoV-2
Unashamed fan of loud shouty music. Not left-wing, not right-wing, not too fond of historical or present day fascists.
One is a former army and intelligence officer, Administrator of an Iraqi province, Foreign Service representative in Afghanistan, former MP and Cabinet minister, Charity head, author, Yale Professor and co-presenter of a highly popular podcast.

The other is an ‘opinion journalist’ with a Substack.

Interesting that the UK’s volkisch press hasn’t covered Iran at all but finds time to bash the BBC for its coverage that is the leading story on their sites.

Plus how do expect any media to cover anything in depth when we have a protofascist mafioso flooding the zone with destabilizing nonsense?

Stop the clocks. An @telegraph.co.uk push notice about a virologist’s opinion on flu that is not calling them a leftist shill or accusing them of making the virus in the lab.

Clearly Sarah Knapton is on holiday…

Same shit, different subject for Viscount Grift

“Published” here means he left a comment in the ‘have your say’ box at the bottom of the article, which while moderated for decorum, is not reviewed for scientific merit…which is just as well.

Good time to be in the milkshake business north of the border

You can literally set you watch by these clowns
6h is the average for the protofascist virologist (look at the rest of his feed) to screenshot. Living rent free indeed.

It is strange that little Tommy Twelvenames wants to believe that Lineker might be up to dodginess, when a good number of his entourage have convictions either for domestic violence or molesting underage girls.

2 grifting lab leaker hacks fighting over the merits of a third who they claim is now part of the cover up and is engaged in bioweapons research

All getting a bit Peoples Front of Judea.

Yes. Very good. I went down to the floor for the support acts, but I went back upstairs for them to get a better view. There must have been a truckload of Dutch down, everyone was 6ft+ down there.

Plus I’m a bit too old for circular moshing and crowd surfing.

I wonder how thankful anyone with cancer, HIV, whose child has died of measles, or anyone who works in medicine or biomedical science is that your unqualified gifting ass is sitting in Bethesda doing the bidding of the worm-rotted Kennedy scion and antivaxxer-in-chief.

But racially abusing them in a cuddly supportive way is fine…

Amazing how far down the Mail/Express/Telegraph sites you have to go to find reference to jailing of welsh Reform leader Nathan Gill for shilling for Putin and Russian aggression in Ukraine whilst a MEP.

Given their Putin-apologist stance, are we to believe no others in Reform are banking Roubles?

I remember when the notion of a bunch of muppets being in charge was viewed as a bad thing.

Time for Rutgers to bring in cognitive decline screening for faculty.

I the week when MAGA conspiracist MTG starts to look sane, Richard Ebright reveals that he thinks a shadowy cabal of US and Chinese scientists released SC2 as a bioweapon as revenge for not getting their grant renewed.

If only there was something we could have done (or not done) that would have helped.
November 10, 2025 at 1:27 PM
Ok, but which way?

The newsroom has been run by tories for a few years.

The BBC regularly platforms climate skeptics and anti science activists on equal parity with experts and data.

Question Time/BBC News gives disproportionate time to Reform and not to parties that have more MPs

Etc etc

The nerve of this POS trying to associate himself with the commemoration of those who sacrificed their lives for their countries, while he simultaneously represents the twisted ideology that they fought to defeat.

Yes, Farage is far more of a national socialist.
