Almost all the references from point to articles written by Chinese scientists in the last year. Color me skeptical.
Who among the proponents of the lab leak theory claim that the virus doesn't occur in nature? Nobody I am aware of. Perhaps the kooks who claim covid was completely manmade as a bioweapon or something.
There is no transparency on this issue with China. There's a reason why there is a dearth of evidence- it's all been suppressed or destroyed.
- civilized 5y ago> Almost all the references from point to articles written by Chinese scientists in the last year. Color me skeptical. Except the first reference, which is the entire point of the article: French scientists found bat coronaviruses very similar to SARS-CoV-2 in Laos. No more partisan posturing please. You are straining to defend preconceived notions by ignoring new information, rather than paying curious attention to the world around you. Turn politics brain off, turn science brain on.

- civilized 5y agoWhat's the point of responding to something I posted in a way that completely ignores the main point? The main finding in that Science paper was from a team with a French leader and zero Chinese co-authors, as far as I can tell from the surnames. Your level of trust in Chinese scientists is completely irrelevant to the point that was made. What are you trying to do here? If you're not trying to learn, are you trying to play political debate and beat me? There's no audience to impress. You either learn something from our conversation or you don't. That's all that can come of this.
