Anyone had time to read it in full? Plausible? Or the usual conspiracy nonsense?
GOP.
They are still dangerously wedded to Trumpian rhetoric. Even the "conclusion" is filled with "may be" and likely and sometime...
Hard to take seriously frankly.
"With dangerous research like this conducted at safety levels similar to a dentist’s office, a natural or genetically modified virus could have easilyescaped the lab and infected the community."
This was debunked a long time ago - presumably from their first report.
Reading between the lines, the whole thing is very political.
They have their conclusion and they've been looking for anything that could be evidence.
I'm still not going to rule out a leak from the Wuhan Lab but this isn't the smoking gun you're looking for.
Is that the best you can do"With dangerous research like this conducted at safety levels similar to a dentist’s office, a natural or genetically modified virus could have easilyescaped the lab and infected the community."

Try what again?Read the whole report, then try again
That may well be the case, but do you also think the WHO are obfuscating, as that is the extended accusation.Just because they have an agenda doesn't mean they're wrong.
Of course the report has to be worded strongly, they have to stress the point against an obfuscating Chinese regime that is in denial.
Surely you will agree that China isn't exactly the most transparent and compliant of countries?
And when accused of causing untold worldwide havoc by releasing this virus, they're even less likely to admit fault.
There have been reports of the French team from said military world games all experiencing the exact same symptoms as the ones we are told about on a daily basis.In case you can't read in full, the conclusion below:
It is the opinion of Committee Minority Staff, based on the preponderance of available information; the documented efforts to obfuscate, hide, and destroy evidence; and the lack of physical evidence to the contrary; that SARS-CoV-2 was accidentally released from a Wuhan Institute of Virology laboratory sometime prior to September 12, 2019. The virus, which may be natural in origin or the result of genetic manipulation, was likely collected in the identified cave in Yunnan province, PRC, sometime between 2012 and 2015. Its release was due to poor lab safety standards and practices, exacerbated by dangerous gain-of-function research being conducted at inadequate biosafety levels, including BSL-2. The virus was then spread throughout central Wuhan, likely via the Wuhan Metro, in the weeks prior to the Military World Games. Those games became an international vector, spreading the virus to multiple continents around the world.
It's from the GOP, not only is it not true, but the people that wrote that know it not to be true but it's a great tool to keep the YOU-ESS-AY types thinking that China are the enemy and that the only people to hold them to account will be the GOP.Anyone had time to read it in full? Plausible? Or the usual conspiracy nonsense?
Surely there's been more than enough time to prove (a) that the athletes contracted covid, and (b) that the games was the source (as opposed to picking it up later).There have been reports of the French team from said military world games all experiencing the exact same symptoms as the ones we are told about on a daily basis.
That report isn't science, there isn't anything provable. The scientific method is missing from that report, it's an opinion piece masquerading as science.....and that in itself is telling.It's science, not maths
It's normal in science to say in conclusion things like 'suggests that...' and 'appears to be...' etc etc
That may well be the case, but do you also think the WHO are obfuscating, as that is the extended accusation.
Would US labs open up unconditionally to Chinese inspectors if there was a suspected viral pandemic leak there?
Would the US admit fault? For anything?
It would explain why it’s linked to bats but why it isn’t circulating amongst bats nowIn case you can't read in full, the conclusion below:

When who is funded by countries and requires funding their integrity could be tested. As all walks of life, money talksThat may well be the case, but do you also think the WHO are obfuscating, as that is the extended accusation.

It's not science. What they are humming and hawing about isn't the science but the likelihood of a coverup.It's science, not maths
