| No. There has not been more evidence that Covid was lab created. Republicans who already support conspiracy theorists suggest that because China did what china always does (suppress information), it must be a lab leak. The fact that china is suppressing information on Covid does not lend credibility to the conspiracy hypothesis. Suppressing information has been a Chinese government position for decades leading up to Covid and is not out of the ordinary behavior, so cannot be used as evidence that something is awry. The next bit of evidence that people who already support the lab leak conspiracy state is that “ventilation was being upgraded”. Which. Okay? I mean. Is it credible that a chinese lab was not sufficiently scrubbed for ventilation workers? I have no answer, but it also doesn’t explain why the virus appears to have jumped multiple times in a somewhat short period at the wuhan markets. All things considered, it is possible that the virus leaked from the lab. But even if that were the case, it doesn’t lend any credibility to the conspiracy, which makes some pretty radical claims (that it was intentionally leaked, that Pfizer paid for the leak, that it was a leftist plot to destroy half the population for some reason, that it was a precursor to injecting people with 5g nanobots, etc) Even if the conspiracy group accidentally landed on the correct place that the virus originated (and that’s suspect. The evidence is conspiracy oriented itself), it doesn’t lend any credibility to it being a plot to kill everyone with a killer vaccine. |
