      China has a lot of state-run and state-affiliated biological-research facilities.https://bit.ly/3teQtqZ

      A 2015 defense journal article laid out “12 facilities affiliated with the ‘defense’ establishment, plus 30 facilities affiliated with the PLA, that are involved in research, development, production, testing or storage of [biological weapons].”https://bit.ly/3teQtqZ

          In fact, one of them is the "People’s Liberation Army Key Genetic Engineering Laboratory.” Boy, that doesn’t sound ominous, now does it?https://bit.ly/3teQtqZ

          And we know the Wuhan Institute of Virology conducted gain-of-function research, which can “enhance the pathogenicity or transmissibility of potential pandemic pathogens.”https://bit.ly/3teQtqZ

          Now… put aside whatever you currently believe for a moment and just imagine that some bat, pangolin, ferret, badger, or rabbit brings a natural version of SARS-CoV-2 into Wuhan, the city that houses some of the Chinese government's viral research labs.https://bit.ly/3teQtqZ

          Even if the Covid-19 outbreak had nothing to do with the labs, the Chinese government couldn’t fully open up the labs for outside investigations and inspections without exposing some other unsavory research-related secrets.https://bit.ly/3teQtqZ

          Thus, the Chinese government would downplay the outbreak, mislead the WHO, make accusations against other countries, and do everything possible to deter or avoid a full examination of their labs in Wuhan — in other words, everything that they’ve done since the pandemic began.

          In other words, “zoonotic origin” and “the Chinese government has something enormously consequential that they’re hiding in their labs in Wuhan” are not necessarily contradictory.https://bit.ly/3teQtqZ
