You have it backwards. That would prove that it was made in a lab. How do you prove that it wasn't made in a lab?

  Im not sure if I am talking to a teenager or GPT3, but no, I don't have anything backwards. Long sequences of the same genes are used as markers are not found in nature.

    Ohhh ad hominem attacks and implying that people who disagree with you are bots. So what you said literally does not make sense. I think you are saying that there are long subsections of genetic sequences that are used as markers? But as you have not actually cited anything we only have a one sentence explanation of your understand of something. Long is ambiguous, as is not found in nature. Hell even markers can be vague.

    Long sequences of genes not found in nature would be evidence that it is a lab-grown virus, but how could you prove that it is NOT a lab-grown virus? The absence of those genes doesn't prove that it wasn't made by a very clever lab.

      I understand your point but don’t see how it relates to the example we were discussing which has a paper discussing its markers.
