That you think it's a coincidence that a novel coronavirus pops up in the only place in china working on coronaviruses blows my mind. Any sane, rational human thought it likely a lab leak from the moment this thing started.

- swores 4y agoOr the scientists sensibly chose to build their lab near where novel viruses are expected to be found, to make studying them easier? You'd probably, for example, find that charities studying/helping poverty are often found near where lots of poor people live - yet you wouldn't blame charities for creating poverty.
- baja_blast 4y ago> chose to build their lab near where novel viruses are expected to be found Then they should have built the lab 800 KM south west in Yunnan. The lab is there for the same reason we have labs in NYC major regional hub with many universities, the lab has been there since the 1950s. Researchers had to travel to places like Yunnan and Laos to collect samples.
- mullingitover 4y agoIsn’t that lab in Wuhan because it’s a region with a lot of endemic coronaviruses?
- plutonorm 4y agoIt's a large region. Also the virus didn't come from anywhere near there. Also, the bats they supposedly came from weren't sold at the wet market. Start with the suspicion and work your way through the facts from there.
