Looking at purchasing a small glass display case to place on my living room bookshelf, and have the wife fashion me a Tin Foil Hat to place in it.

So every time one of the extended family members that followed the Gov/MSM created science, can see when they visit.

#3 @1 Skid, it's more than a "real possibility". It's been obvious for years. Here's a 2023 Baric paper[0]. Note the that the spike RNA sequence was supplied by SHI Zhengli, who happens to be the the director of the Center for Emerging Infectious Diseases at the Wuhan Institute of Virology.

From the Author Contributions section at the end: Z.-L.S. provided SHC014 spike sequences and plasmids. R.S.B. designed experiments and wrote manuscript.

Z.-L.S. is Zheng-Li Shi and R.S.B is Ralph Baric.

When the gain of function work stopped at UNC, Shi continued it at Wuhan, with funding funneled through Peter Dazak[1].

#5 And in case your eyes glazed over reading the abstract, here's the end:

Evaluation of available SARS-based immune-therapeutic and prophylactic modalities revealed poor efficacy; both monoclonal antibody and vaccine approaches failed to neutralize and protect from infection with CoVs using the novel spike protein. On the basis of these findings, we synthetically re-derived an infectious full-length SHC014 recombinant virus and demonstrate robust viral replication both in vitro and in vivo. Our work suggests a potential risk of SARS-CoV re-emergence from viruses currently circulating in bat populations.
