Lam had also collaborated with Wu-chun Cao and others from the Academy of Military Medical Sciences, with Holmes' long time Oxford collaborator Oliver Pybus. Farrar was also in touch with Chinese colleagues- "the very next day", and doubtless so were others. The Chinese clearly got wind of the teleconference and Wuchun Cao arranged for everyone to work their contacts: Did the Chinese even have advance warning the teleconference would take place and have a word in Fouchier's ear? Fouchier is on record as having discussed with Chinese colleagues and he was the one pushing hard in the meeting for a natural origin. I wonder did Farrar also warn his Chinese colleagues in advance? @breakfast_dogs
