> Taking the position that it came from a lab requires more assumptions and more unsubstantiated beliefs than not taking this position. Does it? One view is it came from a lab. The other common view is it came from a wet market. There seems to be evidence the lab was studying covid. While the wet market was seafood focused and I'm yet to see anything showing wildlife meat, let alone bats, while respecting media not showing this doesn't mean they weren't there. Both are possible but it seems to me more likely a lab studying COVID (confirmed or likely?) plus has a history of multiple virus escapes has as good likelyhood and assumptions as an unproven a bat meat section at a seafood market from a bat that would have been likely had to have been transported over 1500km to reach the market if taken from the wild. Personally, I dont think we will ever know the truth and don't claim any answer is correct, but there seems less of a leap of faith on the lab than the wet market to me.
