Covid origin: US spy agencies publish 'inconclusive' report
- Grakel 5y agoI'm sure our capabilities in China are quite limited since they rounded up most of our network in country after poor security practices on our side.
- redis_mlc 5y agoBefore the usual ignorant HN thread postings: We know: - exactly what the WIV labs were for - to make corona viruses using humanized mice - their lungs were modified to be similar to humans, and papers were published on findings of the lab. - that the WIV labs withdrew 2 sets of online corona databases in 2020: the NIH repo and their own online repo in excel format. The NIH set has been partially recovered, although NIH itself could have backups. - that Batlady said in her first interview after the pandemic started that she needed to check if it came from her lab - that the public upload of the COVID-19 genome was unauthorized - Wuhan people don't eat bats - Fauci and Daszak were involved in funding WIV, and covered it up. - a Chinese general took over the lab shortly after the Wuhan outbreak I could go on for another 20 facts, but the point is we know WIV is at the center of the pandemic through a multitude of indirect facts. (This is called the "ledger" theory that WIV was responsible.)
