Is the coronavirus an “animal passage” experiment gone wrong?

The risk from this technique is obvious. By hurrying along the mutation process, scientists are breeding pathogens right there in the lab that may prove lethal *and* infectious. If there s a lab accident and someone gets infected before knocking off work for the day&

You see where I m going with this.

Newsweek reports that the Defense Intelligence Agency, the Pentagon s version of the CIA, concluded on March 27 that it couldn t rule out a lab accident as the origin of the COVID-19 pandemic. That s because, based on the evidence, fully a third of the first 41 people known to be infected by the coronavirus had no direct exposure to the wet market in Wuhan, the place where transmission supposedly began. Meanwhile, as chance would have it, the nearby virology lab in Wuhan just so happens to perform gain of function research on coronaviruses, probably involving animal passage. Some scientists have ardently opposed that type of research for years because of the risk that a virus rendered contagious through extensive gain of function might escape the lab and wreak havoc on the world.

Maybe these experiments are not such a great idea. Just sayin’, as they say.
