“ Our analyses clearly show that SARS-CoV-2 is not a laboratory construct or a purposefully manipulated virus.”
Which is completely irrelevant as to whether it was released by the lab.
It’s Occam’s Razor.
The one place in the world with the largest archive of bat beta coronaviruses just coincidentally happens to be where the public epidemic began.
I latched onto lab leak early based on one fact-
Sars-CoV-2 has “genetic fingerprints” of a lab-origin virus. The presence of a particular genetic sequence (CGG-CGG) is a sign that the virus originated in a lab.
That was obv years ago, the refutations at the time were but it’s still possibly of natural origin. Basically total garbage. Yet, I’ve seen nothing disputing this in years.
Well, knock me over with a pangolin.
