That’s just wild. The one silver lining to T2 is that I’m not shocked by anything anymore. It’s still outrageous, but the surprise is gone.

    As you are responding to one of my posts I should clarify my position.

    They’re arguing that it’s China’s fault and not Trump’s. For that to be the case it ‘must’ be a lab leak.

    Zoonotic or lab origin, the outbreak still occurred in China. Fault is only important to reduce further occurrences. Better wet market policies and tighter lab rules can be implemented simultaneously, worldwide without any blame being assigned.

    The appalling US response to covid is fully Trumps fault.

    The change in the .gov address is designed to compliment the tariffs and anger China.

    The reason to highlight the possible lab origin was because original investigations and papers erroneously claimed that a lab origin was not plausible and any discussion about lab origins was censored as being a conspiracy theory.

    That censorship is still occurring.
