Things are getting so bad that we cannot trust any official source of information, and so basically we have to make up our own 'truth' according to our beliefs. Looks like it is nearly time for a reset of the process.

I would say that, yet again, the tin foil hat group was right on the mark.

Oh how some people so easily dismiss the "what ifs"....

Glenn Kessler of WashPost did the damage control spin against Senator Ted Cruz last year, according to the article. It makes a person wonder if journalists even read '1984' or watch movies like 'The Matrix.' They have been peddling lies to deliberately reduce/remove Americans' freedoms.
yes, that was VERY refreshing. wade is no conservative, just an honest guy uninfected by the usual TDS that has stricken nearly 100% of his colleagues.

So how did you and all the other posters know about it? I first learned and discussed it all year on open and legitimate medical sites. On this and other political forums I recall all sorts of alternative-right postings on this very topic. MSM not so much. BFD.

Perhaps they should be located similar to astronomical observatories, where you have to travel out of your way to reach it, or else use robots?
No, it doesn't look to be a virus that wasn't at least altered by man. It's 80% similar to SARS-COV-1, has the same receptor ACE2, yet it doesn't transmit easily from bat to bat yet does so from human to human. For a naturally occurring virus in bats, that's suspicious. Unless, of course, it was a bat coronavirus that was altered in the lab to be more infectious in humans.

maggie haberman, another NYSlimes stooge, also chimed in on this.
she said it was trump's fault that no one believed the lab leak hypothesis, because by talking about it, he gave the media reason to completely disagree with him [because as we all know - that's practically what they lived for each and every day].
apparently it's trump's fault that leftists have TDS and contradict him involuntarily and habitually.

And those that voiced that opinion last year were called tin foil hat people. The theory was immediately dismissed as not possible, etc.

Come with me on this journey because we need to go back in time for this one. Remember the Wuhan lab? Remember the folks who said the COVID pandemic occurred because of a leak, and that the wet market theory was used as a cover story? The ‘bat woman’ of Wuhan is at the center of this theory that was mocked, denigrated, and dismissed as tin foil hat material.

As I had been discussing this since early 2020 with docs and other scientists well above my pay grade, the consensus remains that it is highly unlikely that the virus was intentionally modified to be more virulent to humans. First off the specific knowledge is not there. And second, the only way to find out if a man made alteration worked, would be by infecting large groups of humans. It is highly unlikely that this was, or could be carried out, especially in secrecy. So far only nature can do this. Since nature has all the time and almost infinite chances for mutations that might make the virus more virulent to humans. And the reason we need to get as many as possible and as quickly as possible vaccinated in the world.

You experience and impressions, not mine as a doc that has been discussing this very topic with medical experts and scientists since early 2020.
