When there are two options, and one seems a little more obvious, but then there is a seemingly coordinated stigmatization of that option and undue consensus on the other option, then that starts to feel like a pretty strong data point in its own right.

It also doesn't make it a cold hard proof. But I do know that pissing of China at the start of a pandemic isn't a good way to help the world mitigate the pandemic either. You need international collaboration and for everyone to work together and relay what they learn of the virus and its transmission and all that. At my work, we have policies similar where in the case of a production event, you don't blame the dev who released the bad code or made the faulty change, because doing so creates an atmosphere that doesn't help with root causing and fixing the issue.
