> If Covid was created in a lab, this de-facto means that Covid is a biological weapon. That's not even remotely true. I agree that lab-leak is something like 60-70% likely, but even the lab-leakers are in unanimous agreement that it was an accidental release of GoF research, not a biological weapon. However poorly justified this research was, it's not the same thing as a bioweapon agent. > Can someone explain to me why there isn't an extremely aggressive campaign to pin down: a. Where it came from b. All parties involved in it's funding and creating c. Passing laws and sanctions to eliminate further continuation of said research. Because this would make China really, really angry, and for better or worse, that's considered not an acceptable cost for the benefit. But note that, very quietly, there have been some tacit admissions that lab leak is probably real. The Biden administration recently cut all funding to the WIV, for instance, which I don't think can be read any other way, so you actually are getting the c) you asked for. I think in the long run GoF research is very much on the chopping block as well; that seems to be the way the discourse is trending. |
