    It's somewhere between theories and conspiracy theories. Zero evidence, but we need somebody to blame.

    Blame it on China
    Don't blame it on me
    Oh-oh, oh, it's nobody's fault
    But we need somebody to burn

    Looks like it’s more than just America blaming China, but you can shill for CCP if it makes you feel better.

    Well, they obviously have some evidence it came from Wuhan dont they? So Whether it was from a wet market or a lab wouldnt the blame be basically the same?

    Are you referring to Ram Nath Kovind, President of India?

    Funny how China won’t allow W.H.O. To come to Wuhan to investigate the origins of the virus... hmmm

    China Refuses to Allow WHO Reps to Investigate Coronavirus Origins
    [​IMG]
    China has refused requests by the World Health Organization to take part in an investigation into the origins of the coronavirus.

    “We know that some national investigation is happening but at this stage we have not been invited to join,” Dr. Gauden Galea, WHO representative in China, told Sky News. “WHO is making requests of the health commission and of the authorities.”

    The WHO and the U.S. intelligence community have concluded that the coronavirus is naturally-occurring and was not genetically engineered. However, U.S. officials suspect that the pathogen may have been accidentally from a lab, possibly the Wuhan Institute of Virology or the Wuhan Center for Disease Control.

    Laboratory logs “would need to be part of any full report, any full look at the story of the origins,” Dr. Galea said. The WHO representative emphasized that “the origins of virus are very important, the animal-human interface is extremely important and needs to be studied. The priority is we need to know as much as possible to prevent the reoccurrence.”

    U.S. officials and politicians have accused China of attempting to cover up the initial coronavirus outbreak. The White House has ordered intelligence agencies to compile evidence of a cover up.

    President Trump has also halted U.S. funding to the WHO after accusing the organization of mishandling the outbreak and parroting Chinese propaganda regarding the coronavirus. Republicans on the House Oversight Committee have urged Democratic colleagues to investigate the WHO’s ties to China.

    And maybe them destroying samples and not sending the genome to the US and other Western Countries could be another.

    Some viruses are RNA viruses, not DNA, including HIV and Corona virus.

    I thought I read something about Corona and HIV are hard to develop vaccines because they are RNA viruses. Is that true?

    I think he’s past having to insult people anymore. He actually would fare much better now if he would just stop his insulting. :dunno:

    I guess you'd have to ask Mags/Trump, but my impression is that they think it reflects worse on China if it came from the lab.

    So WHO is being frozen out by China and also WHO is in league with China.

    I guess if you throw everything at the wall, something might stick?

    WHO is trying to do damage control, China won’t let them in. It’s not binary.
