The discovery of a new wild coronavirus that has the same freak mutation as Covid-19 is being hailed by some scientists as proof Sars-CoV-2 was not made in a lab.
Researchers in China have found another bat coronavirus that possesses a furin cleavage site — the part that made Covid-19 so good at infecting people.
The furin has been one of the focal points of debate about Covid-19's origin, with some experts claiming it could only have been acquired through lab experiments.
Since then, studies have shown that wild coronaviruses can acquire the structure naturally — but the newly-discovered virus has another coincidental quirk.
The virus — known as TyRo-CoV-162275 — is up to 98 percent identical to coronaviruses found in pangolins, the animal long suspected of passing Covid-19 to humans.

When tens of thousands of scientists and research-trained physicians independently examine the data and come to the same conclusions, I'm going to accept what they say. When some "maverick" starts spouting the scientists' own data and conclusions as "proof" of something the scientists never said, I'm going to dismiss him/her as a kook.
The thing about scientific consensus is that it is formed as a result of the study of physical processes. The consensus is that mixing vinegar and baking soda will cause the rapid production of foam. This is because the production of foam is an observable physical process which exists regardless of anyone's opinion. Science is not advanced by a bunch of people wearing white coats arguing about what they think something should be like; it is advanced by observing the physical world.
Note to the Daily Mail: Nice try.
Note there’s only one comment allowed at the moment.
And it’s a weird one.
Is something else going on here...
LOL! Like I said, heavier than any LesPaul I ever picked up. Had pups changed out to humbuckers and it sounded great but at 9.8 lbs it was a bit much for a 4 hour gig so. 12 inch radius neck which I actually like. I bought another body and will swap all the parts out. The trail continues on. I did pick up a sweet Harley Benton from Thomann music in Germany. Didn’t use it much so sold it but for the price, it was a steal. Lately been looking here at some things https://www.monoprice.com/category/pages/13 One of my buddies just picked up the 15wt tube amp. Guess we’ll do a side by side with a 15 wt blues junior to see how it does. For $200 bux delivered.
Lab leak theory? It’s a “theory” is it?
nice try commies.
Yea sure let’s trust the Chinese. I mean they didn’t close Wuhan province during an outbreak and put people on planes to Italy and the US. They are reliable, they weren’t caught smuggling out biological samples, or with bio labs in the US.
Yea sure it’s a new virus that proves them innocent….yea that’s the ticket
I myself can amend my own statement to remove any extremes which may have tainted it.
*********************
Here is what many rational people think:
Chinese scientists, in complicity with the U.S., created a killer virus of which they, in their incompetence, lost control. An outbreak of a novel Coronavirus occurred in the same city as a U.S. funded Chinese biolab which coincidentally indulged in experimentation with deadly viruses.
The entire world economy was shattered as all the perfectly healthy people were quarantined. Millions of lives were shattered as family businesses were destroyed.
Promising therapeutics were quashed in the interest of emergency FDA approval of a novel gene therapy which was rushed into distribution at Warp Speed, bypassing the usual testing safeguards. As a result, hundreds of thousands of people, instead of being treated with the therapeutics, were intubated and died. Alone. Their loved ones weren’t even allowed to hold funerals.
Sane, intelligent people who wished to analyze the risk/benefit ratio of the novel therapy vs Covid 19, were ridiculed and had their lives cancelled.
The Democrats seized upon the opportunity and eliminated voting integrity in the name of safety.
The new report claiming “evidence” that natural Pangolin infecting viruses with furin cleavage sites refuting lab leak theory is produced by Wuhan labs in conjunction with the CCP ARMY:

Cheese and Rice. The corruption in this Banana Republic is criminal.
You’ve got a point.
Or 1.99999999999999.....
Dear Molecular biology expert.
The key to releasing a biological weapon is to make sure that the restriction endonuclease cleavage sites aren’t easily visualized so it’s hard to trace. When it comes to this kind of work, the government is light years ahead of what you know, or think you know about cleavage sites.
The give always are really easy to spot that it was man made: 1) The Chinese did nothing to stop the spread internationally. 2) The NIH was funding research in China, in a lab it paid to build with US tax dollars, enhancing this virus, even though illegal to do so in US. 3) The CIA and media told everyone it came from bat soup…….they didn’t sell the carrier bat in the food market because it lives 1000km away. 4) The CIA paid scientists to lie about the origins of COVID-19, after the US government put a research team together, and say it was natural in origin. 5) The highest paid government employee lied about the Wuhan lab, the funding, and its connection to the same research in North Carolina which was banned.
Two obvious things, you don’t pay scientists to lie unless the truth is uncomfortable and you don’t risk worldwide murder and sanctions by exporting infected people unless you have an agenda.
I wish I didn’t.
Yep.
Hey Dingbat, explain the insertion of four amino acid right at the exact spot.
Then explain why the codons involved in COVID-1984, are those most often seem in humans,in what is as supposed to be a bat virus.
Now explain why this is supposed to be presumed natural, when two Nobel Prize winning virologists said that that’s what made them think it was man-made. Remember when you airily told another poster that Luc Montaigner never won a Nobel? Someone must’ve corrected you, since you backtracked and started calling him a kook.
Were you on a first name basis with him too before he died, after working in his lab for a few weeks, like Malone?
...And you’ll also have to explain why, a *year* after the Nature article more or less commissioned by Peter Daszak to “prove” Covid-1984 was natural, Ralph Baric wrote an editorial in Science, saying that there should be a formal investigation whether Covid-1984 was man-made or not.
Then you have the “bat lady” in China talking explicitly about modifications to the S1 spike protein to see how they could improve its binding; and Daszak’s grant proposal for EcoHealthAlliance.
Two Nobel virologists and the two top groups in the world on gain of function, saying artificial creation of THIS strain, is likely.
That makes it a plausible, forever.
And no longer even the slightest loophole to use the word kook.
And what do you know, there’s a Chinese lab doing this crap in the very city the outbreak happens.
$hot $hill $h!t is transparent.
You should be banned.

Weight was always an issue with the Paul’s. Sheesh a 10 pound tele would be like bricks with a strap on them. Let me know how you like the amp. Just picked up a line 6 practice amp at the local pawn shop for $100. Sure miss that 1967 Fender deluxe reverb l let slip away.
DON’T look HERE, look over THERE at the new latest goofball theory.
