But increases diarrhea on a scale thought unfathomable? Every time you meet one of those 'life extension' types taking Metformin just know that they aren't living their best life in the bathroom.
The GI side effects of metformin are usually short lived. They tend to last about a week or so after starting the drug or increasing the dose. Some people do have longer lasting side effects, but metformin is one of the best tolerated drugs we have.
I took metformin for about two weeks after being incorrectly diagnosed with T2 diabetes (I actually have T1, but some doctors seem to think it's impossible for adults to be diagnosed with it) and stomach / digestion / diarrhea issues only lasted about 2 days for me.
Many Twitter users with a high follower count have turned off replies from people they don’t follow. So it’s basically just an announcement platform for perceived genius.
I think his point is that the short interest is low, therefore it's not that heavily shorted, so if the attacker was doing the hack and shorting the stock to make money on the dip, he wasn't shorting enough to make that much money. Either that, or the attacker didn't short the stock in the first place.
More Chinese institutes are encouraging their scientists to deposit human bio-sample data to their own servers. Some grants even require them to do so.
> The Wuhan lab constructed novel chimeric viruses that combined spike genes from new bat SARS-related coronaviruses with the genomic backbone of another bat SARS-related coronavirus.
> These were viruses that were novel, not viruses that were present in nature.
A rando on twitter is not a source, they're just citing the same circular reasons speculation as assertive truth and there's no proof.
And your citation is to:
> Discovery of a rich gene pool of bat SARS-related coronaviruses provides new insights into the origin of SARS coronavirus
Yes. There is a massive amount that we still don't know about the genoomic diversity of sarbecoviruses in bats in and around China. This is the kind of study that we need a whole lot more of. No idea what your point is.
There's not gain of function. The WIV1 virus already binds to hACE2, putting another spike on it and finding that spike also binds to hACE2 in vitro doesn't enhance its function at all. It does tell you how much that spike binds to hACE2.
You can debate if that's a good idea or not, but SARS-CoV-2 is way too distant from WIV1/SARS-CoV-1 to arise from any lab experiment with chimeric viruses. And its also too far away from RaTG13, which still needs decades of evolution to turn into SARS-CoV-2.

It’s scientists that fund or support gain of function research at WIV. So anyone involved with Ecohealth is fair game.
I don’t see anything political here. If Fauci and Daszak had come out against dangerous experiments at low biosafety levels we wouldn’t be talking about them.
