A statement in the Lancet,
a medical journal, written by public health officials who have been
following the progression of the virus also asserted that animals are
the likely source: “Scientists from multiple countries have published
and analysed genomes of the causative agent, severe acute respiratory
syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2), and they overwhelmingly conclude
that this coronavirus originated in wildlife.”
This lady works at the Wuhan lab, and claims that the virus wasn't registered amongst her samples. The question is whether it could have escaped from there, and she admits that it could have. However, we cannot expect her to whistleblow, since she would be arrested, and/or shot, as was the original whistleblower in China, arrested.
ReplyDelete"Shi instructed her team to repeat the tests and, at the same time, sent
the samples to another laboratory to sequence the full viral genomes.
Meanwhile she frantically went through her own laboratory’s records from
the past few years to check for any mishandling of experimental
materials, especially during disposal. Shi breathed a sigh of relief
when the results came back: none of the sequences matched those of the
viruses her team had sampled from bat caves. “That really took a load
off my mind,” she says. “I had not slept a wink for days.”"
