A Tell

That China won't support a transparent investigation into the virus origin is the "tell" that makes it much more likely it was created in a lab. I mean for crissake, they were testing "gain of function" coronaviruses in a Wuhan lab where the weird, new coronavirus first showed up. Then they covered it up for months and scrubbed all the evidence and punished anyone who talked about it. And the "natural transmission" story is pure speculation based upon...what evidence? The word of the government whose main interest is not taking blame for the lab leak theory? Even in the best case, the natural transmission hypothesis is still just a hypothesis and no new information has come out in the past year to further support the thesis. It's all very fishy.
