I won't repeat myself, but above I assert that there are some critically unusual things about this virus that make it look extremely different from the viruses that "happen all the time." We gain this information not from inside documents or statements that can be dismissed as lies, but from the highly observable viral phylogeny and phenotypic evolution. These are highly unusual in the scope of natural viral spillover events, and any serious attempt to ground the virus in a natural introduction must develop a theory that explains them. What's your plausible story?
- TrispusAttucks 5y agoYou are correct but so many people have been brainwashed and will refuse to accept that what they were told is a lie. Their very identity is at stake and will not abandon their position.
- notacoward 5y ago> Their very identity is at stake and will not abandon their position. This is actually much more likely among contrarians and critics than the general populace. People who are insecure about their identities seek out opportunities to stand out, not blend in.

- notacoward 5y agoYes, there are differences that seem unlikely to arise as part of natural evolution. There are also differences that seem unlikely to arise as part of a lab experiment (i.e. things that are well beyond our known or predictable ability). Some kind of unlikely event still managed to happen. Treating the statistical improbability as evidence for only one conclusion is suspect.
