The simplest, most logical explanation is, and always has been, a lab leak. We're now seeing an up-welling of this commonsense conclusion from society that's leaving scientists perched precariously in their ivory towers having staunchly defended totalitarianism.

The question is why, using the public's money, have the scientific community been running interference for the CCP to bury the truth? That's the opposite of what they're supposed to be doing.

I hope they're held to account - 'criminal negligence' is the kindest thing i can say about their performance.

And yeah, the idea that China's primary bio-defense lab operates completely free of a totalitarian government's control... Sure, right - if that's the level of argument they're presenting then it's no wonder the tide is turning against them.

And where are the polls? Why have pollsters suddenly gone shy of asking the greatest question of all time?
