The article is great but it also has a bit of CCP/globalist propaganda. You see there have been viral leaks before and adding ACE2 function to viruses has previously been done with ferret farms - not CRISPR style genetic manipulation. Ergo is would at surface seem zoonotic but the pattern of infection where it took the world in a matter of months indicates that COVID-19 was likewise developed with similar methods rather than following a more typical and less infectious natural zoonotic jump:
Exactly even the previous SARS virus was not as virulent. It seems like a strain specifically enhanced to target human ACE2 receptors. There was a swine flu enhanced this way in a lab, the method was to culture it via ferrets that have similar ACE2 receptors as humans.
The speed of the spread is not really evidence of anything. The genetic sequencing of the virus IS proof that it could only have been created in a lab. The fact that it can attack the ACE2 is further proof of this as this happens in pretty much no other corona virus (and very few viruses in general). That ability is only something you would add if you wanted to use it as a weapon. It wouldn't help with making a vaccine. So they were likely developing this as a bioweapon when it leaked out of their lab.
I think the speed is definitely worth considering if it doesn't fit with typical patterns of zoonotic jumps:
It absolutely doesn't. Nothing about that theory makes any sense and has no evidence supporting it. There were not bats being sold in Wuhan wet markets. Two different labs in Wuhan were studying bat coronaviruses. China has engineered SARS and other viruses before, making them more deadly and contagious. China has leaked SARS 3 different times. I mean... I could go on. All evidence points to this being engineered in a lab, probably as a weapon, and it leaked and they tried to cover it up because they ALWAYS try to cover up their failures. If it was a normal virus that came out of the wild, they wouldn't start covering it up from the first minute.
Exactly. All things considered it is a bioweapon or a lab leak but not a natural zoonotic jump.
And fyi you can genetically make it look like a natural zoonotic jump if you use animals to culture the strain, in this case for effectiveness against human ACE2 receptors. They use ferrets for that.
That's why the virus was able to spread globally in a matter of months which is not typical of natural zoonotic jumps like we had with MERS
You COULD engineer a virus using just animal jumps, but that's not what happened here. We can see very clearly things were added to the genetic sequence that could not occur naturally. We also know that they were working openly on doing just that. And this virus has a set of 4 gene sequences that occur in only 3 known viruses: this one, another corona virus we know the Chinese discovered and were working on in those labs, and the HIV virus. So it's literally impossible for the CCP virus to be anything but a deliberately engineered virus using artificial means to select for gain of function genes that would make it more virulent in humans (or any animal).
I think it makes a fair argument on that side but doesn't negate the use of intermediary animals with ACE2 receptors similar to humans being used to cultivate a more infectious strain.
So, our tax dollars were not going to support American researchers here in the US? Why go to college if your US government is going to hire a foreigner on foreign soil, anyway?
Fake news. There is no admission here, and the lab did not create the virus.
The revelation that the Wuhan Institute was experimenting on bats from the area already known to be the source of COVID-19 - and doing so with American money - has sparked further fears that the lab, and not the market, is the original outbreak source.
Don't be a cutie pie. They took a virus from bats and added new gain-of-function features to make it much more dangerous to humans. Bottom line, they may not have created the virus itself but they weaponized it whether by accident or not while studying it's effects on animals.
Ok, that's not an admission. It IS fairly strong evidence. Damning evidence at that.

It's a cold virus. Most cold viruses spread like wildfire. This one happens to be on filthy Chinese steroids cause they MADE IT THAT WAY!

Why is the only PC acceptable theory to trow Chinese peasants under the bus for eating batsoup?

This is the latest study China is using to say that it wasn't directly genetically altered (think CRISPR): https://www.nature.com/articles/s41591-020-0820-9

Indeed they did!!
Thank you for the detailed listing.
But but but muh batsoup theory
And who exactly was head of the NIH during the Obama years?
So, our tax dollars were not going to support American researchers here in the US? Why go to college if your US government is going to hire a foreigner on foreign soil, anyway?
Have you ever known communists to not fuck it up in the end?
Barry?
That is the Barry-Biden duo of scandal and treason.
Joe Biden, Creepy Joe to those how know him and those who don't, was funding China's bioweapon program.
Is this the insurance policy for the insurance policy?
This is why China Biden was ruvvin’ some Ching Chang in his pressers. Kiss the rings who helped export this virus.
Enjoy the show- god bless all and RIP to the fallen.
WHAAAT? I always suspected this, but if this article is true, then it should go mainstream.
It seems they screwed with the article. They released research papers explaining what they were doing (admission). https://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-8211257/Wuhan-lab-performing-experiments-bats-coronavirus-caves.html
Spread this shit far and wide.

I think you are in the denial stage let us all know when you reach acceptance and you ll get your coat.
Why the downvotes? Since when do we engage in fake news? The article does not match the title of this post...
THAT SAID, FUCK CHINA.. why are we funding their "science" anyway??
