If it was truly of natural origin, then Moderna wouldn’t have had the dna sequence patented already before January 2020. How else were the “vaccines” ready to go for testing so quickly?
The Democrats can cover for Fauci and Collins all they want, but anyone with common sense can figure this one out. You have to willfully ignore the evidence in order to think this was natural.
That sequence was only a tiny (reverse) part of the COVID-19 genetic sequence, even if one narrows it down to the portion of the sequence concerning the virus’ furin cleavage site.
The same bit of sequence has been found in birds (swifts) and some bacteria. By the same sort of logic used to calculate the improbability of the Moderna “match”, each of those other matches should also be “impossible”. Unless Moderna has been doing time travelling, anyway...
It’s possible the Chinese could have reversed the Moderna sequence and then used the reversed bit of code to modify an existing bat coronavirus. Although, even then, they didn’t work in the coding strand, which is odd. At any rate, Dr. Redfield leans toward the “lab leak” hypothesis, and while he’s a mediocre agency administrator*, he’s a top virologist. Way better than everyone on FR put together.
*I lessened my criticism of the man in that role some time back. To straighten out CDC you’d need one of the best of the Roman or Chinese emperors, and with free reign to reform, to boot.
However... in terms of creating a vaccine... That bit of DNA sequence is such a small part of the total sequence needed, not to mention a whole series of other difficulties to overcome, as to be inconsequential.
