Consider the source of this story ?
Senator Cotton must be right-on-the-money.
Incredulity, anyone ? :-)
This reads like a Chinese propaganda piece.
That struck me also.
When you are over the target.......
Are those the same "scientists" who believe in AGW?
South China Morning PostBring Out Your DeadTo be wildly promoted by CNN and it's ilk, anything to curry favor with their Chinese masters...
Post to me or FReep mail to be on/off the Bring Out Your Dead ping list.
The purpose of the Bring Out Your Dead ping list (formerly the Ebola ping list) is very early warning of emerging pandemics, as such it has a high false positive rate.
So far the false positive rate is 100%.
At some point we may well have a high mortality pandemic, and likely as not the Bring Out Your Dead threads will miss the beginning entirely.
*sigh* Such is life, and death...
If a quarantine saves just one child's life, it's worth it.
Correct me if I am wrong. Isn’t the Chinese origin of this virus the same place that SARS and the Bird Flu started?
somebody at the lab left the virus door open....either by accident or on purpose. Never let a disaster go to waste.
IOW... They have a public rest room in the building.
Alex Lo is the paper’s Communist Party mouthpiece. If Xi Jinping made Swedish China’s official language, Lo would be singing the praises of this move in his very next column.
Nothing to see here...
He probably is. When the news first showed up on FR, I pegged it as having been manufactured in a Chinese lab. Cotton is no different than a lot of people who choose not to be naive when it comes to the Chi-Coms.
When you’re catching flak, you’re over the target.
If you can’t trust the Chinese government, who can you trust?
Yep. I am not a bug fan of Cotton, but hhe appears to havve done a little truth-tellingg here.
Lest anyone imagine sen cotton is a slouch:
The honorable Sen Cotton:
Attended Harvard undergrad where wrote for the Crimson offering dissenting conservative views
He then gray from Harvard Law
He joined the USArmy, turning down a JAG post opting to be in the infantry after 9/11- because of 9/11
...he was awarded the Bronze Star Medal and earned a Ranger Tab, Combat Infantryman Badge, Parachutist Badge, Air Assault Badge, Afghanistan Campaign Medal, and Iraq Campaign Medal.[11][14][15]
He served as congressman then was elected to the senate
His father was a district supervisor in the Arkansas Health Department.
Chi-Com party propaganda.
What prevents a naturally-evolving virus from being experimentally tested and released by a virology institute? Nothing. Just because a virus’s genome may be known, it doesn’t mean it wasn’t being used or released by humans.
