It's crazy that at this point we still keep with this delusion. Of course this is a lab virus. This info is getting old:

Who was really behind this, and the whole history of it, is something surely we won't know for know.

There remains uncertainty. It could be zoonotic. Spreads in some remote village that no one takes notice of, then a villager does a trip to Wuhan.


a lot of this is just really bad, like just off the top of my head 96 percent related genetics is not very much, thats the same similarity between humans and monkeys


96% of human vs monkey DNA similarly is not a lot, because most of that DNA is shared throughout all of the animal kingdom. Since human DNA is close to a billion codons long, the remaining 4% is still tens of millions of codons.

COVID-19 is ~30,000 base pairs long (10,000) codons. The 4% difference is 400 codons. That's not a lot. There are many singular proteins longer than that.

Is that proof? No, the same way gravity is just a theory.


A theory is something that has been rigorously tested, this is speculation, and shaky speculation at best. Id be willing to bet sars and covid 19 have a similar level of genetic similarity

or other things like assuming someone is dead based on the fact that they dont have a picture online and dont wanna talk to press

ive seen youtube conspiracy videos more convincing
