    Getting closer to revealing it fully.

    Fyi hearing bat was not on the menu at the wuhan seafood market... makes sense since... bats are not seafood. But even if that story changes some of yall still won't look at the deadly virus research lab that china recently had to increase the secruity at... because it wasn't enough... and they study bat corona viruses there.... but... but no. NO that is a conspiracy theory. CHINA would never cover up its mistakes.

    Man I have some lovely Florida real esate to sell anyone here who still doesn't suspect the virus came from that lab.

    Yawn.

    When you're someday again being a "classical liberal", and not a Fox News acolyte...let us know.

    Don't worry...nobody will be holding their breath.

    I am not a conspiracy theorist. But I don't think we know everything about where the virus originated.

    Where do you think it came from, if not a natural animal/animal/human transmission? It didn't come from a lab. China totally ****ed up their response. Then the WHO and everyone else kinda ****ed up their response. Then Europe...then...

    ...then the USA completely ****ed up their response. And here we are.

    While this is true, the US, Europe and the WHO do not have markets and legal conditions for animal killing and sales that lead to viruses being originated every 5 years. They do not actively silence and kill anyone who questions them.

    4 new viruses have come out of China in the last 2 decades. As a human, you need a grow a pair and openly state China needs to be held accountable instead of ignoring the root issue - pretending everyone else are the adults and China is a kid with a free pass has continued to backfire on liberals.

    That's what I thought - too scared to say anything about the lucrative oppressor, but quick to hurl any and every insult at Trump because it wouldn't hurt you financially. Something you have in common with the LeBron's and Steve Kerr's of America.

    There is little scientific debate if it’s came from nature or if it’s engineered (“made in a lab”).

    There is some that think it might be accidentally released from a bio lab (not that it was engineered there).

    Science rarely ever said anything with 1000000% certainty so don’t confuse that with “we may never know”.

    We may never know if we are caused by a simulation.

    Didn't some 20-30% believe human walked with dino? So...

    It is crazy that this is a partisan issue. I am down the middle on this one. I dont think it is out of the question that the virus started a few miles away from the assumed location.

    Why? An American Senator implied a bioweapon from China months ago. Russia spearheaded and spread conspiracy theory that it came form the US military. Trump loved China then blame them. China reps respond with it's a bioweapon from America.

    Scientist said it's natural. Nearly 30% got confused and said it's "made". I bet if you poll this among R & D, it's very partisan as a result of all the "fake news" and given one side trust science more than the other side. If you poll this among scientist, it's not at all partisan and yes, it's crazy that we are even here.

    It's in the D&D

    My brother-in-law (ugh, visiting for what seems forever) believes this crap. Heck, last night he tried to show me some youtube that discussed Q and how there were only a few good people in government (flynn, trump). I was almost wondering if my BIL is actually astrodome...

    Perhaps you should ask a scientist or read what they have say ... in Nature

    The proximal origin of SARS-CoV-2

    Thank you for the link. Very interesting. Not saying that I understand it all but the summary is helpful.

    Is there any actual evidence that this started in a lab? And I’m not talking about people spreading accusations but actual evidence. From what I understand the scientific consensus is pretty clear that it was transmitted animal to human, although I haven’t researched this heavily. If you have conflicting information please share it.

    I have seen this story about it being created in a lab and accidentally leaked and I’m just wondering where it came from.

    And I think it is pretty clear why this is a partisan issue. For instance, look at which news sources are running with this.

    Is it possible they were studying an animal with the virus and were using bad safety precautions?

    Not surprising one bit. I've had so many QAnon videos sent to me from my family unsolicited I don't know what to tell you. 30% is probably about the number of Trumps hardcore base support that would get polled on something like this that have lost their damn minds a decent while ago.

    When you step back from it, it defies logic. China purposefully releasing this virus in their own country like they did knowing they might not be able to contain it in their own country, and dealing with a global economy in freefall because of it that even impacts them, isn't something that any world leader would device as a smart strategy for global domination. I think Xi is smart enough to figure out how to get a vile of the virus to the US and drop it in Times Square.
