Do you really think this would be in any way different for any western country? Especially given that those labs might not only be doing "influenza research" but research for biological weapons, too.
- throwawaysea 6y agoYou’re changing the topic. We aren’t talking about western countries. We’re talking about China’s ruling government, the CCP. And what we saw is that they took virtually every possible action to prevent legitimate investigations by suppressing information and tampering with evidence. The only reasonable motivation to do so is to hide origins that lays blame at their feet - such as a lab leak.
- martin_a 6y agoI'm not changing the topic, I'm just saying that this isn't something only China would do. I would expect the exactly same behaviour from any Western country.

- esja 6y agoIt's ridiculous to believe this would have played out the same way if the lab was based in Denmark. Or Sweden, New Zealand, Switzerland, or any number of other Western countries. They would have welcomed the inspection and it would have happened very close to the beginning of the outbreak.
