Being "ultra skeptical" for some non-scientific reasons is also a very dangerous way of thinking. Keeping in mind several factors, such as China being a developing country (and likely having lower standards of biosecurity than say US or Germany), poor conditions in that particular lab (cited by US observers), proximity of the lab etc. at least suggests that there is some non-negligible probability it came from that lab.
- maest 6y agoFWIW, my stance is that there is way too little information to draw any conclusion with sufficient conviction. This is a highly politicised issue so the bar for proving something is, imo, higher. The post I was replying too had high conviction in the 'lab-grown' theory. I'm not sure what you mean by 'non-scientific' reasons.
