US HHS Chief Calls For Probe On Origin Of Pandemic

Top U.S. health official calls for follow-up investigation into pandemic’s origins

The theory that the virus came from a Wuhan lab has gained traction amid criticism of an international probe and reports that several researchers were ill in November 2019 — weeks before the virus was officially identified

Another post on this?  Wow.  China hasn't been transparent, but a VAST majority of scientists agree it most likely came from nature.

 

From that article:

Experts in viral genome evolution determined that it almost certainly was not engineered as a bioweapon because it has several naturally occurring features and is closely related to a 2014 coronavirus that came from a bat in a cave in China.

Yes I am sure it was just coincidental that 1.  The outbreak happened in Wuhan. 2. That there is "surprise surprise" a virology lab in Wuhan 3. That the virology lab in Wuhan was studying bat viruses 4. That Shi Zhengli known as the "bat lady" because of her years of research on bats was at the Wuhan lab  5. That 3 researchers at the Wuhan Lab were sickened enough to require hospitalization in November 2019. 6. That the closest bat cave to Wuhan with Horseshoe Bats is 1,600 kilometers away. 7. And of all the population centers in China the bat chose to infect someone in a town that just by strange coincidence has a virology lab.  

Just a quick question, were you one of the jury members that acquitted O.J. Simpson? 

PS just because the virus was not manipulated does not demonstrate that it did not escape from the Wuhan lab.  The virus would have been in its unaltered state at some point prior to doing research on it, and attempting any kind of virus engineering. 

And "experts" also told the World Health Organization that studies showed no evidence of human to human transmission of the Covid 19 Virus.

if this info comes only now (and not sometimes in 2019/beginning of 2020) and is from the US intelligence at the final days of trump era, I would suspect, that trump was taking sweet revenge for his election failure. He still hopes to stir enough internal and international conflict, throwing all available s.it around, to come back to his post in 3 years

A detailed investigation is desperately needed in order to determine the origins of the virus.  China lied to us, and has with held critical information.  So, scientists can not 100% say for sure that the virus came from nature.  They're only at about 97%. LOL.  But determining how it did the jump is critical. 

 

Sadly, this gap leaves things open for covid deniers and conspiracy theorists to have a field day.
