I never believed it was a bioweapon. Why? Because China was behind on vaccine development, and when they finally produced on it was not only late, but barely functional. Late is one thing - if you release a bioweapon, it's far too suspicious to release a co-developed vaccine simultaneously. But ineffective? When it got out the WHO was parroting China's talking points from day one - it's not airborne, that's just a racist conspiracy. It was nuts. And from the same group that was ignoring the big red flags from Taiwan's early warning system (Taiwan, who incidentally is refused membership as part of the world's China appeasement policy). Then China shutdown domestic travel from Wuhan, while still allowing it internationally. They didn't develop it as a bioweapon - but that did not stop them from weaponising it after the fact.

  The Chinese government responded to Covid the same damned way they responded to SARS; with a cover up - no joke, they were arresting doctors. The biggest difference was that we didn't have someone like Gro Harlem Bruntlant [1] to competently handle the WHO's response [2] and call them out for their bullshit. Both China and Taiwan looked at the SARS outbreak, and made efforts to prevent it from happening again. Taiwan set up a robust early warning system in order to detect and contain such outbreaks in the future. China on the other hand, set out to inject themselves into the WHO to protect themselves from future embarrassment [3].
