#8  Contract Merc lab working on Hong Kong, Taiwan, Mongolia, Japan solution? Was it NK?
Wuhan had the pipes, needed the specs.
Opportunistic virus indeed.

#7  p.s. I do not understand why they'd produce a bioweapon that targets their own population. I mean, real bioweapon should be targeted to genetic markers that distinguish the enemy population from your own.

Win Ling was not suppose to come visit until the testing was concluded !

Things to watch: Is the "kill-off" in Iran an environmental outlier -or- was China looking for something that preferentially effected Central Asian people (like the Muslim people in the 'Stans) more than it effected the *cough* "noble Sons of the Han"?

#5  #3 Look who their biggest advertisers are - wanna bet they're connected to China?

#4  #2 I don't know how it escaped the lab. I do remember reading somewhere that the very first victims had nothing to do with the wet market.

I do know that Chinese Scientists are insanely competitive, which leads them to cut corners on "non-essential" staff like lab safety.

#3  Furthermore it is obvious the media is running cover for the PRC and that should toss them completely into the F-6 category for information
Not only are they trying to overthrow an election they are actively working to coverup the origins of this thing for their puppet masters who own way too much of our nation’s media

#2  Grom
It is a bio weapon that got loose because they sold lab animals to the public
All the stuff of calling it a novel virus meaning it jumped from animals to humans is complete nonsense
Too much oddity in its genome for it to have mutated or evolved
Complete PRC propaganda

#1  Well, I thought that Chinese having a complete genome in a week was awfully quick.

And the spike protein's efficiency could come from "natural" selection - although we've seen no supporting evidence (as it was evolving, it'd caused widespread disease). Or it could be refined in a lab by exploiting molecular cloning techniques.
