In late December 2019, eight pages of genetic code were sent to computers at the National Institutes of Health in Bethesda, Md.

Unbeknown to American officials at the time, the genetic map that had landed on their doorstep contained critical clues about the virus that would soon touch off a pandemic.

The genetic code, submitted by Chinese scientists to a vast public repository of sequencing data run by the U.S. government, described a mysterious new virus that had infected a 65-year-old man weeks earlier in Wuhan. At the time the code was sent, Chinese officials had not yet warned of the unexplained pneumonia sickening patients in the central city of Wuhan.

I voted

Submitted my FL mail-in ballot (the multi-page ballot) a couple weeks ago. Trying to turn FL blue!

A new DU member

I just wanted to thank DU and all of the wonderful DU members for this great site.

I've been lurking for several months after I tripped across the site looking for some other information and have grown to really appreciate the opinions and information offered here.

I've made it official now and made my donation to become a star member.

Most of my family are of the confused GOP type and I take great pleasure in calling BS when they ape the typical, fictional RW talking points. It's a challenging task but one I welcome with great pride.

Thanks again. I look forward to a resounding victory tomorrow and four more years of FORWARD! progress.
