4. I'm intrigued by the issue, and that folks here are afraid to discuss it

There is something to this story.

For me, I became convinced something was really, really wrong after I read Shi's Nature paper wherein she described SARS-Cov-2 as a bat coronavirus (Feb 2020) based on 96+% homology to a sequence that she didn't bother to properly reference until Nature posted an Addendum 9 months later.

I know something about writing a scientific paper, and that is something that just.doesn't.happen. Ever.

So, I started investigating further.

I still do not know the answer, but what I do know for certain, is that the CCP has engaged in a serious cover-up, for whatever reason.

I'm curious why you are so motivated to push the theory that covid escaped from a lab? Phoenix61 Apr 2021 #1
