It was truly a sort of “shoot the messenger” type of situation. As he had talked a lot about future pandemics, some people took that to mean he was just warning people about what he was going to do. Which doesn’t make sense to me but okay. Just as Wuhan being the first laboratory to name SARS COV2 must have meant they created it..

Wuhan was studying bat coronaviruses. Wuhan was working on modifying bar coronavirus before the pandemic. Wuhan deleted all its public databases related to coronavirus a few months before the pandemic was officialy "declared".
There are a lot of evidences that pointed and still point to a lab leak from Wuhan institute of virology.
According to the department of state today, a lab leak is the most likely explanation. "Conspiracy theorist" were 100% true about that.

The Chinese government also covered up all the illegally poached animals kept in unsanitary conditions at the wet market where the epicenter was but that fact just isn't sexy enough for some people.

Crappy food hygiene or elaborate conspiracy? Occam’s razor folks.

Respectfully, the State Department is not the best resource for monitoring the origins of viruses.
Interestingly, btw, this article alludes to how seriously the former guy was in finding the true origin of the virus.

The top comment right now is suggesting that the lab leak theory is compera6 to the idea that COVID was created by Bill Gates.
Seriously, what is wrong with people in this sub? Who really sees these two things as comparable in any relevant way?
