The real question? To what extent was the virus genetically engineered to minimize it's impact on Asians while focusing on others? CCP has access to the most extensive genetic database in the world. It's hard to ignore the fact that countries with the largest concentrations of people of Asian descent had low rates of death and severe infection, in spite of an often much denser population. Many of those countries never "locked down" and destroyed their economies, and put on face diapers for a couple weeks to put on a good show.
that's a hugely important story, but our esteemed media would rather talk about trannies, imaginary 'white supremacists' and orangemanbad.
I am among the few who believe(or will admit that they believe) that not only did the virus come from the Wuhan lab but that it was also released on purpose as an act of biological warfare on the part of the CCP. They were used to pushing the world around economically speaking and Trump was pushing back hard and starting to see some real success at it. Coincidentally Covid shows up just in time, reverses the trend, destroys Trump's presidency and he is replaced with someone who resets US/China relations back to what they were before Trump took office. While much of the western world has suffered from this virus, China has prospered.
I admit it's a possibility. I don't think it really matters. The entire world should declare war on China and install the Taiwan government as the legitimate government.
Even the liberal 60 minutes the other night with its guest and commentary trended towards saying there are big questions around where the virus came from and threw huge shade on the "investigation" pointing out all the gaps and lack of access and data. There is little doubt in my mind this came from the Wuhan lab.
Now, did the Chinese release it on purpose or not is another question. I kind of doubt it, BUT they have gained tremendously from this worldwide outbreak. The CCP has always been willing to sacrifice its own people for its gain, and this could be one of those situations. CCP has waaayyyy too much control on world manufacturing, products, natural resources, etc. The world needs to come together and find ways to reduce its dependence on them. The US needs to do everything it can to secure resources itself.

He runs EcoHealth which received funding from the NIH for the research into coronavirus at UNC Chapel Hill which received bat specimens from WIV. As it states in the first article, the Wuhan virology lab had a minor secondary role in the research.

EcoHealth Alliance received US$3.7 million in funding from the NIH for this research and 10 percent was channeled to the WIV, reported NPR.
This has already been reported in the past. UNC is a lesser grade safety lab which had some problems handling the virus while developing the direct-to-human transmissible version of the SARS virus.
Quote:
Records show that during the five years before the pandemic began, at least six UNC researchers were required to undergo medical monitoring following four incidents where they were potentially exposed to what the NIH now confirms were types of lab-created SARS coronaviruses. In addition, two other UNC researchers had to undergo medical surveillance because of their potential exposure to a type of lab-created MERS coronavirus. The monitoring involved reporting temperatures or any symptoms to university medical officials twice daily.
In each case, the reports indicate these workers were allowed to go about their lives while waiting for symptoms to appear. As the world has learned in recent months, it’s possible for people without symptoms to be infected with the coronavirus and unknowingly spread disease to others.
Safety incidents at UNC have continued in the wake of the pandemic as the university’s researchers have joined scientists worldwide studying the new SARS-CoV-2 virus that causes COVID-19.
New SARS-like virus can jump directly from bats to humans, no treatment available
Researchers from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill have discovered a new SARS-like virus that can jump directly from its bat hosts to humans without mutation. However, researchers point out that if the SARS-like virus did jump, it is unclear whether it could spread from human to human.
