Zero evidence of this being a lab leak. Total conjecture. No one has brought forth even a shred of proof. 

Ok.

Keep thinking some Chinese dude ate a Bat :lol:

Well that is half true. The evidence of a lab leak is the cleavage sites on the virus it self. Many of the experts including the head of the CDC said these would be easy to recreate in the lab and as of yet undiscovered in nature.

The problem is that the cleavage sites don’t seem to be engineered for humans.  

https://www.pnas.org/doi/10.1073/pnas.2211107119

Now, this isn’t to say that the cleavage site isn’t/wasn’t engineered, but the understanding of how it operates shows that it’s a single step in a series of genetic processes that work on a cascading style.  None of the other gene based processes seem to have any engineering done to them.

Yea a paper by UNC and the Wuhan institute of virology.  No bias there.

Great did you hear what Dr Wade said at the hearings?  The science community has painted it self into a corner in as much as it only publishes points of view that stick with the narrative so that they can continue to receive funding.  I don't know Robert F Garry and like most I am in no position to critique his work I just know that without a debate of his peers I don't take his conclusions as gospel.  That does not make me anti science just uneasy with the political nature that has been baked in to the current scientific debate.  A million Americans have died so a short one sided answer is not going to cut it.

Sure did.

Why did you claim my post paper was a UNC Wuhan?

You seem to treat Dr Wade differently though…

I do agree there is no short one sided answer, thus my posts stating we don’t have definitive evidence for either hypothesis presently.

This is the whole thing Neal.....Fauchi does not have a definitive scientific consensus and yet he has repeatedly stated with conviction that the lab leak idea is a complete fallacy going as far as to make up scientific papers and attacking Scientist with opposing views.  You would think that the entire scientific community would want to exhaust all avenues of discovery in what amounts  to a once in 100 year pandemic but that does not seem to be the case.

Your claims are a bit boisterous.  Fauci didn’t make up a paper, he, along with others (including Francis Collins) commissioned a paper.

A precursory review of the virus showed it to be a zoonosis origin.  It can be argued that Fauci and others may have argued that into the only conclusion.

I think i would have been more forgiving if Fauchi did not go on the offensive against those with opposing view points.  It is pretty clear with the question of Funding to the Whuhan lab that Fauchi was no longer just a man of science when he set out to discredit other scientist.

I think that those opposing scientists could/do have just as much bias or desire to discredit Fauci.  I think the scales are equally balanced in that regard.  That is why it is hard to get meaningful information conveyed.  Shit look how fast you erroneously jumped on my reply with bias that what I posted was some UNC/Wuhan paper and have yet to correct the record.

I don't agree with that at all.  I think the original conference call that Fauchi put together early in the Pandemic is telling.  In 4 days time people Fauchi put on the list as trusted voices in the Virology community went from hero to enemy if they did not toe the line with the narrative.  Plus lets look at the other side of this that is not pure science the lab in Whuhan went from self management by scientist to lock down under direct military control within a few days of the early signs of the Pandemic.  So clearly the Chinese government thinks a lab leak is plausible maybe even probable If not in statement but in actions.

That’s because you have a bias.

To me it seems you are being over the top in your descriptions, IMO, relying on testimony from those with bias against Fauci, bias breeding bias.

At present we don’t have definitive evidence supporting either hypothesis.  That is something that neither side can seem to admit.

And you have a bias.  And here we are.  One side has evidence supporting their claims.  One has a narrative that you've been suckling for the past 3 years.

Your side which consists of AC has talked in circles for months and does nothing but call people names.

I haven't seen any actual evidence. Just claims. A huge mess of claims that are easily debunked.

I don’t, I’m not suckling any narrative.  I have said many times now there isn’t definitive evidence for either hypothesis.  I’ve also said I am not a big fan of Fauci, no one cares to accept that either constantly saying I swallow the government load.

You have a bias as well....who doesn't is my point. The whole point is China is never going to allow for accountability at the Whuhan lab and has taken steps to insure what ever truth was to be had has been removed. The best chance for the natural causes crowd would have been to find the virus out in the open but in 3 years time no such discovery has been made. Now we are starting to see government agencies lean towards lab leak.

We should all be biased towards truth, IMO.  It’s much easier to jump into blame and dislike or hate for opposing views.

We just have no good evidence to support either hypothesis presently.
