“Increasing Confidence” that COVID-19 Accidentally Released from Wuhan Lab
This seems to be a growing belief that this virus was accidentally spilled from the lab in Wuhan:
There is increasing confidence that the COVID-19 outbreak likely originated in a Wuhan laboratory, though not as a bioweapon but as part of China’s attempt to demonstrate that its efforts to identify and combat viruses are equal to or greater than the capabilities of the United States, multiple sources who have been briefed on the details of early actions by China’s government and seen relevant materials tell Fox News.
This may be the “costliest government cover-up of all time,” one of the sources said.
The sources believe the initial transmission of the virus – a naturally occurring strain that was being studied there – was bat-to-human and that “patient zero” worked at the laboratory, then went into the population in Wuhan.
The “increasing confidence” comes from classified and open-source documents and evidence, the sources said. Fox News has requested to see the evidence directly. Sources emphasized — as is often the case with intelligence — that it’s not definitive and should not be characterized as such. Some inside the administration and the intelligence and epidemiological communities are more skeptical, and the investigation is continuing.

FOX News as a reliable source? 🙄
Beijing Man prefers XiNN…
Setnaffa, let’s put it this way.
China is like a local gangbanger going around the neighbor, robbing and stealing from the neighbors.
On the other hand, the US is like a cop who was once an honest cop who did his job well to protect the neighborhood from crimes. But he got into financial trouble by overspending on luxury goods, so to make up for his failing lifestyle, he’s going around the neighborhood, turning into a bad cop, demanding protection money from everyone to protect them against the Chinese gangbanger. Those who refuse, risks angering the dishonest cop threatening to punish them by robbing them.
In the end, China or the US, the same side of the same coin. South Korea’s homework is to balance out these two big corrupt powers from overwhelming and ruining the country’s wealth and economic growth.
Beijing Man, you are making Beijing’s arguments 98% of the time. Where did the Wuhan Flu come from? Who besides WHO lied about it being super-contagious? Who did President Moon refuse to ban from visiting Korea? Who was the first Asian country to ban Koreans?
Most Americans agree with Trump wanting to charge full price to South Korea. We’re tired of riots and protests and filthy lies from you leftists you wanna play you gotta pay.
You have already seen your felllow contrymen laid off because Korea refused to pay. Frankly, I doubt you are a Korean because you act like unemployed Koreans is no problem. Like you have no family.
Well, I do have family–and friends–in Korea. And I want them safe from Chinese aggression, Chinese plagues, and Chinese-inspired economic problems.
Attacking the USA is popular. But if our troops go, their salaries go, too. And most American businesses do too. And if we then stop buying steel from Pohang, where will your people turn? Japan? You’re already working on turning them back into an enemy? The Philippines? They see you as a place that turns young girls into prostitutes. Taiwan? Not unless you stand up against Beijing. Maybe you can be a nice colony of Qatar or Bahrain?
Take your bilgewater somewhere else.
More heads will roll in Wuhan.
