California epidemiologist, Anne Rimoin, doesn't have all of her cards on the table about monkeypox and its link to coronaviruses:
24 Jul 2022 Rimoin on Monkeypox
Monkeypox expert Dr. Anne Rimoin explained the various ways the virus can spread on Sunday, a day after the World Health Organization declared it a public health emergency.

'...."but we really have to be humble about what we know about this virus"....'
Rimoin was involved in studies directly linked to Metabiota and by default, to Hunter Biden:
Rimoin AW, et al, Malacomys Coronavirus
'....Collected 25 Mar 2014....Institute National de Recherche Biomedicale*; GV Cameroon; Metabiota....submitted 14 Feb 2020, UC Davis.'
* Edward Hooper mentions this Institute on p. 100 of The River: A Journey to the Source of HIV/AIDS.
Having established Rimoin's involvement with the collection of an African coronavirus from the Big-Eared Swamp Rat, Malacomys longipes, the problematic is that there is apparently no published spike sequences for this virus so that other people can compare with the SARS-C0V-2 spike to determine characteristics of spread between viruses for themselves.
In addition, there is a problematic with this African swamp rat for being a reservoir of monkeypox. The responsible authors of this study still have not resolved its "unverified" status, leaving it in limbo:
Malacomys longipes Monkeypox
'....collected 1 Jan 2012....Universiteit Antwerpen, Belgie....'submitted 6 Jul 2020'
On 26 Ap 2012, Fau Chi addressed the U.S. Senate. On 25 Ap 2012, the ill Mojiang copper miners began to shuffle into the Kunming Hospital. It was from Mojiang mine that came SARS-CoV-2's closest relative, RaTG13.
So the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic was already well underway when (both [italics]) the coronavirus and the monkeyvirus reports were submitted.
