Let’s see. She plant’s the seed with an unsubstantiated rumor and conservatives run with it. What’s the difference between that and Russsia Russia Russia?

She was in Hong Kong. Not exactly an eye witness.

Isn't there a difference between unquestioningly believing something and totally ignoring it?

Sounds like you think it should be actively ignored, and not investigated?

China is obsessed with reputation. It has deep roots in their psyche even before the Communists got in.

She has plenty of education in the necessary areas. She presents a plausible scientific reason to presume the virus was altered by humans.

What is the difference?
One turned out to be true, the other false.
Quite a difference.
