Tulsi said US operates lot of biolabs outside US so as to avoid US regulations.
A disease can come from anywhere

Unless you're trying to imply that China engineered the whole thing - extraordinary claim that will require extraordinary evidence

They did downplay the effects of covid and spread misinformation about it as well as silence the researches and journalists who were first trying to ring the alarm bells
My country did the same thing to me. :-/
Are you talking about Trump and conservatives here?
Nope[1]. I am getting tired of people looking up to China just because the governments of Europe and US are completely fucked. China is no better.

Imagine you have most expensive disease in human history by economy standpoint and after 6 years we have just claims of where it came from. Isn't that suspicious enough?
Where did Spanish Flu "come from"? Or HIV for that matter.

We've got a fair idea where SARS-CoV-2 originated (horseshoe bats). It's the early path it took that's muddy.

There was no worldwide lockdowns because of HIV or Spanish Flu.

Never turned on and probably never will.

Yes, I remember: "Vector" BSL4 Lab, Novosibirsk, Russian Federation, Sep 16 2019. Fire blast, then unequipped military first responders which stole lab equipment, then joint military training with Wuhan military police few weeks later.

China was the first victim of the Russian virus.
