Wow!!!!!! The Covid lab leak theory just hit the big time with this BBC story.

Note that the BBC describes it as a "Major Scientific Controversy."

Hmm. will the MSM here touch this story now that the election is over?

>>>"Those three deaths are now at the centre of a major scientific controversy about the origins of the virus and the question of whether it came from nature, or from a laboratory."<<<<

>>>"But the fact that Wuhan is now home to the world's leading coronavirus research facility, as well as the first city to be ravaged by a pandemic outbreak of a deadly new one, has fuelled suspicion that the two things are connected."<<<<

I have to agree with ghost, here Spock. The full article is not meant to imply that a lab leak is likely but among several theories being put out by the WHO, with transmission from bat to human as the most likely cause. The director of the facility "welcomes" any investigation, but it is the Chinese government (not surprisingly) that is restricting access. I don't see anything earth-shattering here.
