However, there must be more evidence than three lab workers seeking medical help with symptoms of a cold (about what may be statistically expected for a complex of that size in the cold season) and no apparent trail of possible infections in that (social) vicinity. This is simply not a sufficient argument for a hypothesis of such gravity.
Moreover, I have a hard time seeing how this could have happened, provided the requirement of some considerable exposure (viral load) over a considerable time. (A COVID-19 infection is not a matter of a short contact for a few seconds or even minutes.) Personally, I'd say, there is no coherent theory, just politics.

A cluster in a straight line along Wuhan subway Line 2 connecting the lab with the PLA hospital.

- masswerk 5y agoI'd expect a discernible trail in the social vicinity of said personal. A geographical vicinity to their route of commute (alone) is rather an argument to the contrary. Disclaimer: I studied social research and related statistics.
