Waiting for you to walk back that dumb statement....or admit you are not the expert you claim to be.
I don't have too much respect for the view that the United States should be more like China in restriction of rights, no matter how many people die.
Those who would give up liberty for security, deserve neither, and will inevitably lose both.
control over population, controls all info to the outside, where the virus originated, should be held up as the standard viral control. Not buying it

there are many more studies and articles on the genesis of COVID-19...they all point in the direction of animal-to-human transmission. BTE, these folks have been doing this sort of analysis for decades, so it would be unbelievably difficult to arrange a conspiracy between them.
One other thing...China's singular strategy going forward is the "Belt and Road Initiative" which depends on 'happy customers' all over the world...unleashing a pandemic on those same customers is unlikely to be in China's "Marketing Plan"...don't you think?
Also, China provided the genetic code for COVID-19 to the rest of the world in early January, 2020 (shortly after they discovered it in December 2019)...from which we were able to use new mRNA technology to create vaccines in record time...

offered the linked article...to give you more information with which to make an informed choice...and that choice is always yours...I'm no hypnotist.
My subsequent post on 'Pandemics being Optional' highlights the need for international cooperation to deal with outbreaks, thus keeping them from becoming pandemics. China being an authoritarian, one party, socialist market economy, suffers from the same systemic failings that led to Soviet Russia's Chernobyl disaster (i.e. squelching any news that would put a negative light on the leadership)...they apparently got caught up in that mindset for a short while, but thankfully they 'came clean' and quickly distributed the genetic code for COVID-19, thus enabling worldwide, highly effective vaccines to be developed in record time.
We need to find ways to work with such global 'partners' so that when naturally occurring outbreaks happen in the future...and the will...we have agreements that allow us to have early warning systems established on their territory...not unlike what was previously set up.
Think, are u saying it didnt come from China? It does not say that
evolved from natural causes in China, or that the Chinese created it (with malice of forethought)?...some people have implied the latter.
Can you imagine what people would say if Trump announced that's where the pandemic started?
Do we trust Xi more than we trust Trump? I don't see how anyone can answer that question with a yes.
I'm not taking a position on the origin of the virus. The outcome of that debate does not interest me anymore. Just making a comment about which sources of information people choose to believe. Their political agendas are usually more important to that decision than the truth of the information.
other source. There is conjecture both ways
