there isnt even a preprint of this yet
"In the 22-page paper which is set to be published in the scientific journal Quarterly Review of Biophysics Discovery, the scientists describe their months-long 'forensic analysis', looking back at experiments done at the Wuhan lab between 2002 and 2019. "
the underlying base of this thesis appears to be the presence of 4 positive charge amino acid residues in succesion with each other, apparently unlikely due to charge repulsion.
to say the least it is not particularily good form to publish in the dailymail before a preprint has even been published for review.
this gets into a bit of biochemistry, but amino acids have different charge chacteristics depending on surrounding conditions, free solvated amino acids or peptide linked in a sequence, they dont present with the same charges at different p[H+] or tonicity, this is not against the laws of physics, nor is adjacent like charged amino acids in a sequence against the laws of physics, especially when biological phenomenon take a work around past those laws
