MY CREDO I believe that it is better to tell the truth than a lie I believe it is better to be free than be a slave I believe it is better to know than be ignorant You can't do anything about the length of your life but you can do something about its width & depth

🧵 WHAT REALLY HAPPENED IN DRASTIC Ok, we need to set the record straight about how the DRASTIC schism happened. And no, it’s not because of the Radical R, although many of us did want to change it once we realized Billy originally used it for his RAGE University years ago: https://t.co/RpuMYgKIGO

@ydeigin - Yuri Deigin

https://t.co/ZsSkd8oa5W

@ydeigin - Yuri Deigin

Needless to say, most DRASTIC members want nothing to do with such radical anarchist messaging which we never signed up to endorse: https://t.co/1PA74Tfwt0

@ydeigin - Yuri Deigin

But what precipitated our decision to separate from Billy was the revelation that he appropriated the group email access and his subsequent refusal to comply with group’s majority vote to share it with the group’s appointee.

@ydeigin - Yuri Deigin

The original group email was created by @RdeMaistre, and he then shared its password with EdgeOfTheLeaf who was the website admin at the time. Later Rodolphe found himself locked out, and then learned it was Billy who changed not only the password but also the recovery email. https://t.co/pMr5dSqAd0

@ydeigin - Yuri Deigin

Billy then told Rodolphe a ridiculous story how EdgeOfTheLeaf deleted his Twitter account because of either getting cancer or fearing that he has compromised his anonymity. Surprisingly, Edge didn’t bother telling anyone else this or any other story before disappearing.

@ydeigin - Yuri Deigin

We found out about all this when @Rossana38510044 challenged Billy for his dictatorial behavior over access to journalists & filmmakers, but instead of agreeing to restore group access to email Billy insulted Rossana and then locked her and 3 more members out of the group.

@ydeigin - Yuri Deigin

That was on October 2, and a multi-day crisis ensued where several members tried to convince Billy to share group email access but to no avail. The group then held a formal vote to compel Billy to share email access with at least me but he still refused. https://t.co/Y3XNmvh06S

@ydeigin - Yuri Deigin

At that point we had no other choice but to create a new email and website, as Billy controlled both at the time. However, revealing his true terrorist nature, he threatened to engage in a slanderous smear campaign against me if we chose to make the new website and email public: https://t.co/hvEY3AfxiK

@ydeigin - Yuri Deigin

The group agreed that we do not negotiate with terrorists, and after we set up the new email and constructed the website, we made the announcement of distancing from Billy and his website.

@ydeigin - Yuri Deigin

Changing what DRASTIC stands for was proposed *after* the decision to split off from Billy, and was put to a vote in the original DRASTIC group, to which we were added back once Billy was removed. https://t.co/lksMdfRVUm

@ydeigin - Yuri Deigin

As Andre and WhereIsHuangYanling left the group before that vote, 21 members remained, so 13 votes for and 1 abstention were enough to pass the proposal. https://t.co/P2CovhOwEx

@ydeigin - Yuri Deigin

In closing, we never wanted to make this dirty laundry public, but with Billy’s misinformation campaign trying to portray the split as a result of disagreement on the name change we had to set the record straight. And no, rebranding was not my idea, although I fully support it.

@ydeigin - Yuri Deigin

Also, I am not trying to become “the leader of DRASTIC” or portray myself as some sort of “coordinator” — DRASTIC is and will remain decentralized and fully democratic. But I *will* always stand up to bullying, as that is something I simply cannot tolerate.

1. The Market Map Once upon a time some questions were asked (35-40) https://x.com/BillyBostickson/status/1279110406191976448 Emails were sent asking for details Requests were made BUT George Gao refused to give specific details about the positive environmental samples from the Huanan seafood market in Wuhan.

3. None of those questions were ever answered, which infuriated DRASTIC and deeply disturbed the wise epidemiologist, Dr. Daniel Lucey: Jan 25th: https://sciencespeaksblog.org/2020/01/25/wuhan-coronavirus-2019-ncov-qa-6-an-evidence-based-hypothesis/ March 15th: https://sciencespeaksblog.org/2020/03/15/recent-data-and-maps-to-help-find-the-origin-of-covid-19/ April 9th: https://sciencespeaksblog.org/2020/04/09/covid-19-day-100-since-the-wuhan-market-closed-where-are-the-animals-and-their-virus-test-results/ June 30th: https://sciencespeaksblog.org/2020/06/30/covid-19-covid-eight-questions-for-the-who-team-going-to-china-next-week-to-investigate-pandemic-origins/

4. The Map (via @TheSeeker268) but now we have, after waiting 10 months, a little map that was hidden from us by the Chinese CDC, and strangely enough by the American CDC and the WHO. Here is the story of a 10 month old map https://archive.is/SmhkZ Read it carefully

6. Question Time Why was the map never made public by China CDC? Who leaked it? Why was it leaked now? Why did SCMP publish it? (remember they also published the November 17th early patient leak) https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/South_China_Morning_Post What can the map tell us about early cases and the market?

8. Another Question Using a FOIA request in the US, the Post also obtained a separate blurred map of the market held by the WHO & the US CDC. "there are areas where markings by investigators differ between the versions" Note small print: Not for Further Distribution Why Not? https://t.co/MNYR4nfBBv

@BillyBostickson - Billy Bostickson 🏴👁&👁 🆓

9. A polite interpretation? "While the Post’s freedom of information request showed the WHO & the US CDC had a floor plan of the market by late January, it was not clear if the Chinese CDC plan obtained by the Post with different markings was shared with those health bodies"

1/3 George Gao Fu is a pathological liar who is in charge of the cover up and limited hangouts. Still he has the absolute gall to try to hoodwink the world by refusing to give specific details on the environmental samples. https://t.co/r7rqXByfMX

16. Gao's statements ‘the novel coronavirus had existed long before’. "We found the genome of the virus through detection of environmental samples from stalls of illegally operated wild animals" Ian Lipkin said George Gao,was initially convinced that the culprit was a bamboo rat https://t.co/DNmySZ6TDd

@BillyBostickson - Billy Bostickson 🏴👁&👁 🆓

17. Gao Knew? Gao realised after analysis of the positive environmental samples where SARS-COV-2 had come from. It would have been clear from the products sold on stalls in the western area of the market. That information was never made public. Since then silence & cover up.

This statement viewed in light of the subsequent refusal to share information makes little sense unless you have evidence from the market positive environmental samples that the novel virus was likely from lab experimental animals sold illegally at the market. https://t.co/qot07Fu25z

13/ Some more info on early cases

@babarlelephant - babar

First preprint with @Engineer2The @Drinkwater5Reed @Franciscodeasis on our dive into early Covid cases, focusing on sequences. https://zenodo.org/record/6672912 We found some raw reads unpublished as sequences (https://academic.oup.com/cid/article/71/15/713/5780800 ) and that Beijing's 1st case was earlier than thought

On some unpublished early SARS-CoV-2 sequences The origin of SARS-CoV-2 is still unknown: the chain of events that brought a virus whose close relatives are found in Rhinolophus bats in the Yunnan province and in Laos to the Huanan seafood market in Wuhan in early December 2019 remains to be elucidated. In particular, the non-market patients and the genetically more ancestral Lineage A remain mysterious. A retrospective analysis identified 174 patients with onset in December, among them only 15 have been sequenced and published, often multiple times. By collating as much data as possible on early cases we found some data on 65 patients with onset in December 2019. Furthermore, we detected two patients who had been sequenced, but whose sequences were never uploaded to a public database and whose raw reads, although published, were not reanalyzed. We also present some information on the first Beijing patient, who had an onset date of December 17, 2019 and was related to the Huanan market outbreak. Using the collated information, significant progress has been made towards solving the discrepancies in the early sequences. A phylogeny of 19 early patients is presented, based on onset dates, as well as several tMRCA estimates – falling in late November. zenodo.org

Gain-of-function research can't deliver pandemic predictions. Are there alternatives? Gain-of-function research in virology can pinpoint genetic mutations that could make viruses a pandemic threat, yet there is no guarantee that the next pandemic virus will follow any of the genetic roadmaps scientists discover using these methods. A potentially large number of genetic mutations could affect how viruses behave, changing viral traits in a way that could prove hard to predict.

@Ayjchan - Alina Chan

@TheLancet @emilyakopp It is sorrowful to see FOIAs reveal virologist after virologist privately debating a lab #OriginOfCovid while publicly condemning any suggestion of an unnatural origin as a conspiracy theory. Why can't we admit that even the most talented & charming scientists can make mistakes?

@Ayjchan - Alina Chan

@TheLancet @emilyakopp This is where one esteemed infectious diseases expert (also recently passed away) says, in an email, that being a brilliant and charming scientist does not rule out the possibility of an accidental infection in the lab.

@Ayjchan - Alina Chan

These are the emails: https://usrtk.org/wp-content/uploads/2021/11/LeDuc_Russell_856-8.pdf

@Ayjchan - Alina Chan

Saying that it's plausible an outbreak started because of a lab accident says nothing about that scientist's humanity, virtue or intelligence. It also does not necessarily mean that the biosafety levels in the lab had to be subpar. SARS1 escaped from a top BSL4 lab before.

@Ayjchan - Alina Chan

I don't understand why it's immoral to suggest and investigate a lab accident, but not immoral to similarly suggest and investigate a market spillover.

@Ayjchan - Alina Chan

Many of these private exchanges among top experts - some who condemned lab #OriginOfCovid in public but worried about a lab leak in private - are only coming to light about 2 years later due to FOIA efforts by the @USRightToKnow https://usrtk.org/biohazards-blog/u-s-virologist-cleared-testimony-with-wuhan-lab/

Melioidosis - Nature Reviews Disease Primers Burkholderia pseudomallei is a Gram-negative environmental bacterium and the aetiological agent of melioidosis, a life-threatening infection that is estimated to account for ∼89,000 deaths per year worldwide. Diabetes mellitus is a major risk factor for melioidosis, and the global diabetes pandemic could increase the number of fatalities caused by melioidosis. Melioidosis is endemic across tropical areas, especially in southeast Asia and northern Australia. Disease manifestations can range from acute septicaemia to chronic infection, as the facultative intracellular lifestyle and virulence factors of B. pseudomallei promote survival and persistence of the pathogen within a broad range of cells, and the bacteria can manipulate the host's immune responses and signalling pathways to escape surveillance. The majority of patients present with sepsis, but specific clinical presentations and their severity vary depending on the route of bacterial entry (skin penetration, inhalation or ingestion), host immune function and bacterial strain and load. Diagnosis is based on clinical and epidemiological features as well as bacterial culture. Treatment requires long-term intravenous and oral antibiotic courses. Delays in treatment due to difficulties in clinical recognition and laboratory diagnosis often lead to poor outcomes and mortality can exceed 40% in some regions. Research into B. pseudomallei is increasing, owing to the biothreat potential of this pathogen and increasing awareness of the disease and its burden; however, better diagnostic tests are needed to improve early confirmation of diagnosis, which would enable better therapeutic efficacy and survival. Burkholderia pseudomallei is a bacterium with a high biothreat potential: it can cause an infectious disease — melioidosis — that presents with sepsis, pneumonia or both in the majority of patients, with mortality as high as 50% and for which no vaccine is available. nature.com

[Thread] Wang et al. (2021): Another article revealing trips to the Mojiang mine and Laos was kept in the limbo when the pandemic started. Note: The article covers HKU10 viruses which are not related with SARS-like viruses. https://www.mdpi.com/1999-4915/13/10/1962

Genomic Characterization of Diverse Bat Coronavirus HKU10 in Hipposideros Bats Bats have been identified as natural reservoirs of a variety of coronaviruses. They harbor at least 19 of the 33 defined species of alpha- and betacoronaviruses. Previously, the bat coronavirus HKU10 was found in two bat species of different suborders, Rousettus leschenaultia and Hipposideros pomona, in south China. However, its geographic distribution and evolution history are not fully investigated. Here, we screened this viral species by a nested reverse transcriptase PCR in our archived samples collected over 10 years from 25 provinces of China and one province of Laos. From 8004 bat fecal samples, 26 were found to be positive for bat coronavirus HKU10 (BtCoV HKU10). New habitats of BtCoV HKU10 were found in the Yunnan, Guangxi, and Hainan Provinces of China, and Louang Namtha Province in Laos. In addition to H. pomona, BtCoV HKU10 variants were found circulating in Aselliscus stoliczkanus and Hipposideros larvatus. We sequenced full-length genomes of 17 newly discovered BtCoV HKU10 strains and compared them with previously published sequences. Our results revealed a much higher genetic diversity of BtCoV HKU10, particularly in spike genes and accessory genes. Besides the two previously reported lineages, we found six novel lineages in their new habitats, three of which were located in Yunnan province. The genotypes of these viruses are closely related to sampling locations based on polyproteins, and correlated to bat species based on spike genes. Combining phylogenetic analysis, selective pressure, and molecular-clock calculation, we demonstrated that Yunnan bats harbor a gene pool of BtCoV HKU10, with H. pomona as a natural reservoir. The cell tropism test using spike-pseudotyped lentivirus system showed that BtCoV HKU10 could enter cells from human and bat, suggesting a potential interspecies spillover. Continuous studies on these bat coronaviruses will expand our understanding of the evolution and genetic diversity of coronaviruses, and provide a prewarning of potential zoonotic diseases from bats. mdpi.com

With low or no pathogenicity in humans & close genetic relationship with 2019-nCoV, our pangolin coronavirus provides an ideal alternative model for 2019-nCoV research. Our reasoning of this having low or no pathogenicity in humans was based on the fact that, back in 2017.....

@stevenemassey @quay_dr @Daoyu15 @humblesci @ydeigin @Rcoleptic @Engineer2The 18. A possible pathway (now more likely) For that, see Bernd Kaina's Paper: "On the Origin of SARS-CoV-2: Did Cell Culture Experiments Lead to Increased Virulence of the Progenitor Virus for Humans?" https://iv.iiarjournals.org/content/35/3/1313

On the Origin of SARS-CoV-2: Did Cell Culture Experiments Lead to Increased Virulence of the Progenitor Virus for Humans? We are currently in a rapidly expanding pandemic of the SARS-CoV-2 virus, which originated in the city of Wuhan in central China. The COVID-19 is now spread worldwide and has tremendous socio-economic consequences. The origin of the virus can be reconstructed through epidemiological studies and, even more so, from genome comparisons. How the evolution of the virus and the transition to humans might have happened is the subject of much speculation. It is considered certain that the virus is of animal origin and very likely passed from bats to humans in a zoonotic event. An intermediate host was postulated, but many SARS-like bat viruses have the ability to infect human cells directly, which has been shown experimentally by scientists in the Wuhan Institute of Virology using collected specimens containing virus material from horseshoe bats. The propagation of SARS-like bat viruses in cell culture allowed experiments aimed at increasing the infectivity of the virus and adaptation to human cells. This article summarizes the unique properties of SARS-CoV-2 and focusses on a specific sequence encoding the spike protein. Possible scenarios of virus evolution are discussed, with particular emphasis on the hypothesis that the virus could have emerged unintentionally through routine culture or gain-of-function experiments in a laboratory, where it was optimally adapted to human cells and caused cryptic infections among workers who finally spread the virus causing the pandemic. iv.iiarjournals.org

There is a remarkable identity on amino acid & nucleotide level in & around the FCS between SARS-CoV-2 & a MERS-CoV 2.

When cells in culture were coinfected with the predecessor of SARS-CoV-2 and another virus strain that contains the PCS/furin cleavage site, the sequence was transferred to the predecessor virus as a result of a recombination event.

@stevenemassey @quay_dr @Daoyu15 @humblesci @ydeigin @Rcoleptic @Engineer2The 21. Bernd Kaina (3) 4. Interestingly, MERS-CoV contains a furin-specific cleavage site, which is very similar to the one found in SARS-CoV-2. As outlined above, there are 6 identical amino acids between position 678 and 687 in SARS-CoV-2 and MERS-CoV.

@stevenemassey @quay_dr @Daoyu15 @humblesci @ydeigin @Rcoleptic @Engineer2The 22. Bernd Kaina (4) 5. Gain of function through the PCS could have happened unintentionally, e.g. after introducing different viruses into a cell to see whether they complement each other functionally (“in trans”), or purposefully in the context of gain-of-function experiments.

Propagation of the progenitor of SARS-CoV-2 (e.g. RaTG13) together with a MERS-CoV is likely to lead to the selection of a virus that gains functions of both viruses, thus increasing its infection rate in vitro.

"Vicious Spies & Killers under the Mask of Academic Physicians." Today, we demand the arrest of a group of saboteur-doctors. This terrorist group, uncovered some time ago by our investigators , had as their goal shortening the lives of human beings by means of medical sabotage.

1/4 From an obscure PhD thesis by Aleksei Avery CHMURA, now chief of staff at @EcoHealthNYC & author of: 2013 WIV paper: https://www.nature.com/articles/nature12711 2016: https://www.ecohealthalliance.org/wp-content/uploads/2016/11/Zeng-etal_Bat-SARSlike_2016.pdf 2018: https://www.ecohealthalliance.org/wp-content/uploads/2018/03/Virologica-Sinica-SARSr.pdf Thesis Evaluating Risks of Paramyxovirus and Coronavirus Emergence in China

Isolation and characterization of a bat SARS-like coronavirus that uses the ACE2 receptor - Nature Whole-genome sequences of two novel SARS-CoV-related bat coronaviruses, in addition to a live isolate of a bat SARS-like coronavirus, are reported; the live isolate can infect human cells using ACE2, providing the strongest evidence to date that Chinese horseshoe bats are natural reservoirs of SARS-CoV. Peter Daszak and colleagues identify two novel coronaviruses from Chinese horseshoe bats that are closely related to severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV), the cause of a pandemic during 2002 and 2003. They also isolate a live virus from these bats that has high sequence identity to SARS-CoV and that can infect human cells using ACE2, the same receptor that is used by SARS-CoV. The results provide the strongest evidence to date that horseshoe bats are natural reservoirs of SARS-CoV. The 2002–3 pandemic caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV) was one of the most significant public health events in recent history1. An ongoing outbreak of Middle East respiratory syndrome coronavirus2 suggests that this group of viruses remains a key threat and that their distribution is wider than previously recognized. Although bats have been suggested to be the natural reservoirs of both viruses3,4,5, attempts to isolate the progenitor virus of SARS-CoV from bats have been unsuccessful. Diverse SARS-like coronaviruses (SL-CoVs) have now been reported from bats in China, Europe and Africa5,6,7,8, but none is considered a direct progenitor of SARS-CoV because of their phylogenetic disparity from this virus and the inability of their spike proteins to use the SARS-CoV cellular receptor molecule, the human angiotensin converting enzyme II (ACE2)9,10. Here we report whole-genome sequences of two novel bat coronaviruses from Chinese horseshoe bats (family: Rhinolophidae) in Yunnan, China: RsSHC014 and Rs3367. These viruses are far more closely related to SARS-CoV than any previously identified bat coronaviruses, particularly in the receptor binding domain of the spike protein. Most importantly, we report the first recorded isolation of a live SL-CoV (bat SL-CoV-WIV1) from bat faecal samples in Vero E6 cells, which has typical coronavirus morphology, 99.9% sequence identity to Rs3367 and uses ACE2 from humans, civets and Chinese horseshoe bats for cell entry. Preliminary in vitro testing indicates that WIV1 also has a broad species tropism. Our results provide the strongest evidence to date that Chinese horseshoe bats are natural reservoirs of SARS-CoV, and that intermediate hosts may not be necessary for direct human infection by some bat SL-CoVs. They also highlight the importance of pathogen-discovery programs targeting high-risk wildlife groups in emerging disease hotspots as a strategy for pandemic preparedness. nature.com

The pathogenicity of SARS-CoV-2 in hACE2 transgenic mice - Nature Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is the cause of coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19), which has become a public health emergency of international concern1. Angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) is the cell-entry receptor for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus (SARS-CoV)2. Here we infected transgenic mice that express human ACE2 (hereafter, hACE2 mice) with SARS-CoV-2 and studied the pathogenicity of the virus. We observed weight loss as well as virus replication in the lungs of hACE2 mice infected with SARS-CoV-2. The typical histopathology was interstitial pneumonia with infiltration of considerable numbers of macrophages and lymphocytes into the alveolar interstitium, and the accumulation of macrophages in alveolar cavities. We observed viral antigens in bronchial epithelial cells, macrophages and alveolar epithelia. These phenomena were not found in wild-type mice infected with SARS-CoV-2. Notably, we have confirmed the pathogenicity of SARS-CoV-2 in hACE2 mice. This mouse model of SARS-CoV-2 infection will be valuable for evaluating antiviral therapeutic agents and vaccines, as well as understanding the pathogenesis of COVID-19. Infection with SARS-CoV-2 causes interstitial pneumonia and viral replication in the lungs of transgenic mice that express a human version of ACE2, confirming the pathogenicity of the virus in this model. nature.com

Characteristics of SARS-CoV-2 and COVID-19 - Nature Reviews Microbiology Severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) is a highly transmissible and pathogenic coronavirus that emerged in late 2019 and has caused a pandemic of acute respiratory disease, named ‘coronavirus disease 2019’ (COVID-19), which threatens human health and public safety. In this Review, we describe the basic virology of SARS-CoV-2, including genomic characteristics and receptor use, highlighting its key difference from previously known coronaviruses. We summarize current knowledge of clinical, epidemiological and pathological features of COVID-19, as well as recent progress in animal models and antiviral treatment approaches for SARS-CoV-2 infection. We also discuss the potential wildlife hosts and zoonotic origin of this emerging virus in detail. In this Review, Shi and colleagues summarize the exceptional amount of research that has characterized acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) and coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) since this virus has swept around the globe.

11. 2020 - USA SARS-CoV-2 infection of human ACE2-transgenic mice causes severe lung inflammation and impaired function https://www.nature.com/articles/s41590-020-0778-2

SARS-CoV-2 infection of human ACE2-transgenic mice causes severe lung inflammation and impaired function - Nature Immunology Although animal models have been evaluated for severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) infection, none have fully recapitulated the lung disease phenotypes seen in humans who have been hospitalized. Here, we evaluate transgenic mice expressing the human angiotensin I-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) receptor driven by the cytokeratin-18 (K18) gene promoter (K18-hACE2) as a model of SARS-CoV-2 infection. Intranasal inoculation of SARS-CoV-2 in K18-hACE2 mice results in high levels of viral infection in lungs, with spread to other organs. A decline in pulmonary function occurs 4 days after peak viral titer and correlates with infiltration of monocytes, neutrophils and activated T cells. SARS-CoV-2-infected lung tissues show a massively upregulated innate immune response with signatures of nuclear factor-κB-dependent, type I and II interferon signaling, and leukocyte activation pathways. Thus, the K18-hACE2 model of SARS-CoV-2 infection shares many features of severe COVID-19 infection and can be used to define the basis of lung disease and test immune and antiviral-based countermeasures. Diamond and colleagues generate a K18-hACE2 model of SARS-CoV-2 infection that shares many features of severe COVID-19 infection and can be used to define the basis of lung disease and test immune and antiviral-based countermeasures. nature.com

Novel Bat Alphacoronaviruses in Southern China Support Chinese Horseshoe Bats as an Important Reservoir for Potential Novel Coronaviruses While bats are increasingly recognized as a source of coronavirus epidemics, the diversity and emergence potential of bat coronaviruses remains to be fully understood. Among 1779 bat samples collected in China, diverse coronaviruses were detected in 32 samples from five different bat species by RT-PCR. Two novel alphacoronaviruses, Rhinolophus sinicus bat coronavirus HKU32 (Rs-BatCoV HKU32) and Tylonycteris robustula bat coronavirus HKU33 (Tr-BatCoV HKU33), were discovered from Chinese horseshoe bats in Hong Kong and greater bamboo bats in Guizhou Province, respectively. Genome analyses showed that Rs-BatCoV HKU32 is closely related to BatCoV HKU10 and related viruses from diverse bat families, whereas Tr-BatCoV HKU33 is closely related to BtNv-AlphaCoV and similar viruses exclusively from bats of Vespertilionidae family. The close relatedness of Rs-BatCoV HKU32 to BatCoV HKU10 which was also detected in Pomona roundleaf bats from the same country park suggests that these viruses may have the tendency of infecting genetically distant bat populations of close geographical proximity with subsequent genetic divergence. Moreover, the presence of SARSr-CoV ORF7a-like protein in Rs-BatCoV HKU32 suggests a common evolutionary origin of this accessory protein with SARS-CoV, also from Chinese horseshoe bats, an apparent reservoir for coronavirus epidemics. The emergence potential of Rs-BatCoV HKU32 should be explored. mdpi.com

Characterization of a New Member of Alphacoronavirus with Unique Genomic Features in Rhinolophus Bats Bats have been identified as a natural reservoir of a variety of coronaviruses (CoVs). Several of them have caused diseases in humans and domestic animals by interspecies transmission. Considering the diversity of bat coronaviruses, bat species and populations, we expect to discover more bat CoVs through virus surveillance. In this study, we described a new member of alphaCoV (BtCoV/Rh/YN2012) in bats with unique genome features. Unique accessory genes, ORF4a and ORF4b were found between the spike gene and the envelope gene, while ORF8 gene was found downstream of the nucleocapsid gene. All the putative genes were further confirmed by reverse-transcription analyses. One unique gene at the 3’ end of the BtCoV/Rh/YN2012 genome, ORF9, exhibits ~30% amino acid identity to ORF7a of the SARS-related coronavirus. Functional analysis showed ORF4a protein can activate IFN-β production, whereas ORF3a can regulate NF-κB production. We also screened the spike-mediated virus entry using the spike-pseudotyped retroviruses system, although failed to find any fully permissive cells. Our results expand the knowledge on the genetic diversity of bat coronaviruses. Continuous screening of bat viruses will help us further understand the important role played by bats in coronavirus evolution and transmission. mdpi.com

Bat Coronaviruses in China During the past two decades, three zoonotic coronaviruses have been identified as the cause of large-scale disease outbreaks–Severe Acute Respiratory Syndrome (SARS), Middle East Respiratory Syndrome (MERS), and Swine Acute Diarrhea Syndrome (SADS). SARS and MERS emerged in 2003 and 2012, respectively, and caused a worldwide pandemic that claimed thousands of human lives, while SADS struck the swine industry in 2017. They have common characteristics, such as they are all highly pathogenic to humans or livestock, their agents originated from bats, and two of them originated in China. Thus, it is highly likely that future SARS- or MERS-like coronavirus outbreaks will originate from bats, and there is an increased probability that this will occur in China. Therefore, the investigation of bat coronaviruses becomes an urgent issue for the detection of early warning signs, which in turn minimizes the impact of such future outbreaks in China. The purpose of the review is to summarize the current knowledge on viral diversity, reservoir hosts, and the geographical distributions of bat coronaviruses in China, and eventually we aim to predict virus hotspots and their cross-species transmission potential. mdpi.com

Immune System Modulation and Viral Persistence in Bats: Understanding Viral Spillover Bats harbor a myriad of viruses and some of these viruses may have spilled over to other species including humans. Spillover events are rare and several factors must align to create the “perfect storm” that would ultimately lead to a spillover. One of these factors is the increased shedding of virus by bats. Several studies have indicated that bats have unique defense mechanisms that allow them to be persistently or latently infected with viruses. Factors leading to an increase in the viral load of persistently infected bats would facilitate shedding of virus. This article reviews the unique nature of bat immune defenses that regulate virus replication and the various molecular mechanisms that play a role in altering the balanced bat–virus relationship. mdpi.com

Bats and Coronaviruses Bats are speculated to be reservoirs of several emerging viruses including coronaviruses (CoVs) that cause serious disease in humans and agricultural animals. These include CoVs that cause severe acute respiratory syndrome (SARS), Middle East respiratory syndrome (MERS), porcine epidemic diarrhea (PED) and severe acute diarrhea syndrome (SADS). Bats that are naturally infected or experimentally infected do not demonstrate clinical signs of disease. These observations have allowed researchers to speculate that bats are the likely reservoirs or ancestral hosts for several CoVs. In this review, we follow the CoV outbreaks that are speculated to have originated in bats. We review studies that have allowed researchers to identify unique adaptation in bats that may allow them to harbor CoVs without severe disease. We speculate about future studies that are critical to identify how bats can harbor multiple strains of CoVs and factors that enable these viruses to “jump” from bats to other mammals. We hope that this review will enable readers to identify gaps in knowledge that currently exist and initiate a dialogue amongst bat researchers to share resources to overcome present limitations. mdpi.com

Bat Research Networks and Viral Surveillance: Gaps and Opportunities in Western Asia Bat research networks and viral surveillance are assumed to be at odds due to seemingly conflicting research priorities. Yet human threats that contribute to declines in bat populations globally also lead to increased transmission and spread of bat-associated viruses, which may pose a threat to global health and food security. In this review, we discuss the importance of and opportunities for multidisciplinary collaborations between bat research networks and infectious disease experts to tackle shared threats that jeopardize bat conservation as well as human and animal health. Moreover, we assess research effort on bats and bat-associated viruses globally, and demonstrate that Western Asia has limited published research and represents a gap for coordinated bat research. The lack of bat research in Western Asia severely limits our capacity to identify and mitigate region-specific threats to bat populations and detect interactions between bats and incidental hosts that promote virus spillover. We detail a regional initiative to establish the first bat research network in Western Asia (i.e., the Western Asia Bat Research Network, WAB-Net), with the aim of integrating ecological research on bats with virus surveillance to find “win-win” solutions that promote bat conservation and safeguard public and animal health across the region. mdpi.com

26. DTRA - Duke University Singapore Discovery and Characterization of Novel Bat Coronavirus Lineages from Kazakhstan https://www.mdpi.com/1999-4915/11/4/356/htm Supplementary Materials The following are available online at https://www.mdpi.com/1999-4915/11/4/356/s1: Figure S1.

Discovery and Characterization of Novel Bat Coronavirus Lineages from Kazakhstan Coronaviruses are positive-stranded RNA viruses that infect a variety of hosts, resulting in a range of symptoms from gastrointestinal illness to respiratory distress. Bats are reservoirs for a high diversity of coronaviruses, and focused surveillance detected several strains genetically similar to MERS-coronavirus, SARS-coronavirus, and the human coronaviruses 229E and NL63. The bat fauna of central Asia, which link China to eastern Europe, are relatively less studied than other regions of the world. Kazakhstan is the world’s ninth largest country; however, little is understood about the prevalence and diversity of bat-borne viruses. In this study, bat guano was collected from bat caves in three different sites of southern Kazakhstan that tested positive for coronaviruses. Our phylogenetic reconstruction indicates these are novel bat coronaviruses that belong to the genus Alphacoronavirus. In addition, two distinct lineages of Kazakhstan bat coronaviruses were detected. Both lineages are closely related to bat coronaviruses from China, France, Spain, and South Africa, suggesting that co-circulation of coronaviruses is common in multiple bat species with overlapping geographical distributions. Our study highlights the need for collaborative efforts in understudied countries to increase integrated surveillance capabilities toward better monitoring and detection of infectious diseases. mdpi.com

27. DARPA collection of viruses in Uganda Sent to Stuart Nichols - Atlanta CDC BSL4 Discovery and Characterization of Bukakata orbivirus (Reoviridae:Orbivirus), a Novel Virus from a Ugandan Bat https://www.mdpi.com/1999-4915/11/3/209/htm Supplementary Materials https://www.mdpi.com/1999-4915/11/3/209/s1

Discovery and Characterization of Bukakata orbivirus (Reoviridae:Orbivirus), a Novel Virus from a Ugandan Bat While serological and virological evidence documents the exposure of bats to medically-important arboviruses, their role as reservoirs or amplifying hosts is less well-characterized. We describe a novel orbivirus (Reoviridae:Orbivirus) isolated from an Egyptian fruit bat (Rousettus aegyptiacus leachii) trapped in 2013 in Uganda and named Bukakata orbivirus. This is the fifth orbivirus isolated from a bat, however genetic information had previously only been available for one bat-associated orbivirus. We performed whole-genome sequencing on Bukakata orbivirus and three other bat-associated orbiviruses (Fomede, Ife, and Japanaut) to assess their phylogenetic relationship within the genus Orbivirus and develop hypotheses regarding potential arthropod vectors. Replication kinetics were assessed for Bukakata orbivirus in three different vertebrate cell lines. Lastly, qRT-PCR and nested PCR were used to determine the prevalence of Bukakata orbivirus RNA in archived samples from three populations of Egyptian fruit bats and one population of cave-associated soft ticks in Uganda. Complete coding sequences were obtained for all ten segments of Fomede, Ife, and Japanaut orbiviruses and for nine of the ten segments for Bukakata orbivirus. Phylogenetic analysis placed Bukakata and Fomede in the tick-borne orbivirus clade and Ife and Japanaut within the Culicoides/phlebotomine sandfly orbivirus clade. Further, Bukakata and Fomede appear to be serotypes of the Chobar Gorge virus species. Bukakata orbivirus replicated to high titers (106–107 PFU/mL) in Vero, BHK-21 [C-13], and R06E (Egyptian fruit bat) cells. Preliminary screening of archived bat and tick samples do not support Bukakata orbivirus presence in these collections, however additional testing is warranted given the phylogenetic associations observed. This study provided complete coding sequence for several bat-associated orbiviruses and in vitro characterization of a bat-associated orbivirus. Our results indicate that bats may play an important role in the epidemiology of viruses in the genus Orbivirus and further investigation is warranted into vector-host associations and ongoing surveillance efforts. mdpi.com
