Lab Leak - Good F---ing Lord

Listening to Andrew Sullivan podcast on the matter. Just a few factual tidbits to throw out that have been systemically silenced over the past couple years:

-Beijing virus labs had 4 incidents of SARS-1 virus's escaping from the lab in the past. Basically, lab escape is not what we would call rare. 

-Wuhan institute had level 2 virus security (whereas US labs working with coronavirus had level 3 security). Level 4 is the highest. Level 2 is similar to the security of a dentist office with more signage. 

-The r-protein in COVID cannot be found in any other related coronaviruses that exist in animals. Usually with animal transmission, it takes several jumps and iterations until the virus finds itself working on humans. 

-And in case everyone forgot, the initial outbreak of COVID happened in Wuhan where they were studying and working on corona-fucking-viruses!!!!
