Covid origins
👀
My boss just told me with absolute certainty that the WHO has already issued a report confirming a lab leak.

She says everything with absolute certainty.
I have been getting a surprising number of questions about CIA's low-confidence announcement that they believe SARS-CoV-2 came from a lab.

A few comments in 🧵, but to summarize:

1️⃣ No new intelligence
2️⃣ No new report
3️⃣ No evidence exist to support SARS-CoV-2 came from lab
4️⃣ Usual nonsense

What Drosten doing?

"Es ist eine monströse Vorstellung, dass in einem Labor ein
gefährliches Virus entwickelt wird, das dann vielleicht durch Schlamperei entweicht, und am Ende haben wir eine Pandemie."

"Ja, und ich muss sagen, je mehr Zeit vergeht, desto skeptischer werde ich."

"Verbietet die Staatsräson, dass daran gearbeitet wird? Mag sein. Die andere Erklärung wäre aber, dass da gar kein natürliches Virus war. Die Politik sollte nach all den Jahren deutlicher die Forderung an China stellen, jetzt wirklich zu beweisen, dass es aus der Natur kommt."

I don't get this post.
It is not malaria. They have 30 million cases of malaria yearly. A chronically malnourished population with multiple diseases, including a mysterious one that killed 37 and sickened 592. The next pandemic probably starts in a scenario like that, not in a secret lab leak Chinese conspiracy. #BirdFlu

Jon Myers: "This was briefed in October and November 2019 as a lab leak. It's important that people realise.

"It was in the intelligence. We briefed it. It was accepted. I briefed it numerous times about a viral outbreak and that it was from a lab."

Anyone else on here using the search function to find posts dismissive of lab leak and then replying with facts?

Yikes!

"This landmark bill was published... in tandem with a famous television presenter and a well-funded lobby group, which even put up posters in stations showing a blonde woman in pink pyjamas jumping with joy at being allowed to kill herself."
How can those arguing for assisted suicide claim this flawed bill to unleash euthanasia in our shattered health and care system is compassionate or progressive? My @inews.co.uk column inews.co.uk/opinion/how-...

"In 2022 three biologists.. guessed that if SARS-CoV-2 had been generated in a lab by a standard method, it would have been assembled from six sections of lab-synthesized DNA with the help of a biological agent called BsmBI.

Wendy thinks wild animals are bred in factory farms. I have doubts.

In her book 'Doppelganger', Naomi Klein writes:

"I was too quick to take the official story – that it came from a wet market where wild animals were sold – at face value.
If I'm honest, I accepted it because it served my own motivated reasoning and reinforced my worldview:

Interesting to see that Naomi Klein apparently "echoes Nate Silver on the lab leak thing." Has anyone read the book?
