In January 2020 there was discussion on Chinese Social Media about lab conditions at the plant, and that it came from there. There were multiple quality sources about it. There ended up being a crackdown on discussion about this from China with several people being taken away.
I've always considered that a reasonable and boring explanation for the source, and I've seen no reason to update that point of view.
- zaik 5y agoChinese government would crackdown on this discussion whether true or not.
- mandmandam 5y ago... That doesn't exonerate them. Like, at all. It's weird that so many make this point as if it matters. Just because someone lies all the time, doesn't mean you don't INVESTIGATE them when something happens and they are implicated in the deaths of millions of people. Their failure to cooperate in investigation is a black mark against them regardless of how many other black marks they have. Is that so hard to grok?
