I tend to agree and the "intentional CCP release" theory also seems flawed.

If intentional, would China shoot itself in the foot by releasing a deadly virus in its OWN major cities and infect potentially millions/billions? There is a Chinatown in every major city in the world and it would be trivially easy to release in any one but they chose to attack their own city of Wuhan during the world military games "to own the West"? Seems silly.

Or would the US and its allies release a virus it knowingly funded the creation of, a few miles from a primary lab in a country they constantly call their 'greatest adversary & threat'?

One of these seems more likely than the other to an objective observer since this isn't the first time the US and its allies have engaged in chemical & bio-warfare against the Chinese population.

The foreign aircraft carriers and war ships surrounding the Chinese coast are perhaps yet another clue...
