>Yeah I never understood the point of the argument. Like ok so it came from a lab, does that mean we shouldn't do anything to protect ourselves from it? Just because it was man made and not a natural evolutionary jump from animal to human doesn't magically make it better. Heck it makes it worse.
The point is that "trust the science" leftoids were literally censoring social media to try to fight this narrative. Every time you try to censor something and it turns out to be true it should cause some serious self-reflection. Of course, this won't happen..
I'm honestly confused about this. This information is from 2020, and I swear I remember reading another article in nature with more recent information saying that it came from bats based on genomic data.
It's almost like the Chinese government leaned on the international community to accept an explanation that didn't make it their fault. To everyone in the virology field it being a lab leak was extremely obvious, but that was suppressed for the sake of politics.
The conspiracy has been it was created on purpose and leaked. I think it is more likely it was lack of precaution while doing SARS related research that led it to be released to the local area. The fact that WHO investigators were denied entry to do an investigation points to a major lab mistake by the CCP.

I loved how "maybe it leaked from the nearby laboratory doing research on making coronaviruses more infectious" was racist, but "those dirty chinks literally can't stop eating unhygienic undercooked street meat" was A-OK
> guys it started from china, so maybe it was a lab leak?
> NOO IT CAN'T BE A LAB LEAK, CONSPIRACY THEORY, MISINFORMATION, CENSOR CENSOR CENSOR
> ok it was a lab leak, but you were still wrong, because reasons
I'm tired. Now they're pretending like we claimed it was released by china to hurt trump. Well maybe some did, but every single one of us that said anything differing from the 'science' consesus were censored, and now they're even pretending the years of lockdowns never happened.

No, no, we were saying it wasn't a bioengineered attack. Nobody was saying it couldn't have leaked from the lab.

So what was the primary reason for the censorship, to not anger china or to not give legitimacy to 'conspiracy' theorists?
If they proved the theorists correct, then it would be difficult to force the vax on everyone I guess.
Way easier to discredit them, pretend you were right and then quietly say woopsie at the end of it.

China happened to have the world's supply of masks and other pandemic-handling equipment.
Plus for the burgers it was an election year, so it was convenient to absolve China and blame Trump
